Issue Apache errors and misconfiguration

radtou

New Pleskian
Hi,
I have a vps with centos 6 and plesk 17 and a wordpress website, I had apache 2.2 and I wanted to upgrade to apache 2.4 to be able to install php-fpm, but the site didn't work anymore then, so I deleted apache and I installed apache 2.2.15 back, but now when I open the website, it make me download the php file instead of executing it, I googled the problem and found some instructions to add in the httpd.conf file; I added them but nothing changed, I am really stuck, is there a possibility to completely delete apache and its config files and reinstall it again from scratch ? will that affect the plesk installation? Any other suggestion would be welcomed
 
Update: Ok, I used
# plesk bin repair --restore-vhosts-permissions
And the plesk repair fs worked without error,
I restarted apache but the initial problem is still there
Execution of plesk repair web
