Every time I open the website which is Website it tends to download a file may be a GZIP issue? I'm not sure I tried removing the PHP handler even changed it many times but no fun. Please Help me out if someone can.

For now what it looks like a misconfiguration in the HTACCESS file I change PHP 5.6-7.0,7.1,7.2 but still, the issue is still there. I tried removing the super cache htaccess rules but still, the site does not open.

Answer 1

This typically happens when PHP/Apache is not setup correctly. When PHP isn't correctly installed or being used by Apache, it will download PHP files rather than "running" them
