F10>F12 upgrade. PHP pages does'nt work now

[fth1963]

I just completed upgrading from F10 to F12. I had a few problems but now everything works just perfect, except my Apache server does'nt execute the PHP pages on the web-server. The php-pages use to work just fine.
I have Apache/2.2.13 (Unix), with PHP 5.3.0 (cli) (built: Nov 17 2009 19:19:17)

I tried to remove alle PHP rpm-packages and install them again with no luck.
I have checked the httpd.conf file and it include the following lines:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php5
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php
and
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
I get a msg. from the last line, that the php5 module is already loaded.

I have restarted httpd-service.

I have the following php modules installed:
php-devel-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-cli-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-common-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-pdo-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-mysql-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686


Any clues to what can be wrong/missing?

Edit: Sorry folks. Its solved
Seems that in the new versions of PHP/Apache with F12 you need to write
<?php .....?>
and not just
<? ... ?>

Why not just editing php.ini and enabling short tags?

That's been the recommended way of switching to php mode for a long time. The other modes can be confused with other language parsers

Thank you for this solution.
I enabled the short tags option and my php pages were being served correctly again so that is definately my problem (although my config had always had short tags off, guess it was ignored in the fc10 rpm versions).

Turned short tags off again and started hunting.
Eventually found a few stray <? lines embedded in some include files I hadn't touched in years but were referenced by most of my pages.
So thanks to this solution being posted all fixed.
