I just switched over to Ubuntu from Windows and am trying to get php 7 and Apache working.

I'm running php 7 and apache 2.4.18

PHP 7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1 (cli) ( NTS )
Server version: Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu)

Apache localhost displays the "It works!" page, yet any other page with php shows plain text.

After trying to restart the service (sudo service apache2 restart) I get the following.

Job for apache2.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

"systemctl status apache2.service" returns,

May 31 11:11:12 mike-N53Jq apache2[4926]: Output of config test was:

And journalctl -xe returns,

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to go from here? This is all pretty new to me.

Thanks.

sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php
sudo apt install php7.0-mbstring
sudo a2dismod mpm_event
sudo a2enmod mpm_prefork
service apache2 restart

after that

gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

add the following line

Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf

service apache2 restart

libapache2-mod-php server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (Apache 2 module) so we have to add this
