PHP not running after Upgrade Ubuntu

Question

I have upgraded my Ubuntu server to 22.04.1. Everything else is working fine but php simply does not run! I tried to visit my website and all I get is php source code. For example, mydomain.com/info.php shows me the code:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

I restarted all apache services - nothing changed! php -v on terminal shows this (everything OK):

PHP 8.1.2 (cli) (built: Jul 21 2022 12:10:37) (NTS) Copyright (c) The PHP Group Zend Engine v4.1.2, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v8.1.2, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies

Any idea?

You could also just have added the symlinks to /etc/apache2/mods-enabled for the php8.1.load and php8.1.conf files found in /etc/apache2/mods-available

cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
ln -s ../mods-available/php8.1.load php8.1.load
ln -s ../mods-available/php8.1.conf php8.1.conf
restart apache

Finally it was php 8.1 which cause this issue. Before the upgrade I had php 7.4 and everything was fine, so I removed php 8.1
