 * Contact your hosting provider and ask them why PHP isn’t running on your server.
   They’re the ones who control that.

 * **Hello, **
 * What is type of Your server – VPS/Dedicated, Shared Hosting?
    If shared, then
   You need to contact with Your hosting provider (as said [@macmanx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/)),
   if self managed then We have few possible reasons.
