Howdy -- thanks for contacting us!

What if you try to access a script located in the public_html folder, are you able to access that?

Or do you receive the same error in that case?

The public_html works fine. I have tried install other scripts and get the same error on most of them. This was a fresh install about 3 weeks ago. my old server crashed. i also tried change PHP versions per directory.

Hmm, that's an odd one!

What if you make a subfolder off of the public_html folder named, say, "test", and in it, create a script named "test.php".

Within that, give it the following contents:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

When accessing that test.php script, does it function properly? Or do you receive an error?

The test script works just fine. Also not logging any errors. I tried a few other scripts it seems like only the scripts that require a install ie. install.php.

I wonder if there's some sort of protection that's been added to Apache against running install.php scripts.

Could you try renaming the test.php script to install.php, and see if that is accessible?
