I installed xampp and even downloaded a fresh wordpress from official site. It is running fine. But when i try to load my existing live site in localhost, it just downloads the php file but won't serve the site. What is it that i am missing? It runs fine in my friend's windows machine but not on my ubuntu. I even changed chmod permissions to the folder for it to be accessed.

This is not a WordPress specific problem. And maybe a duplicate question of this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12142172/apache-shows-php-code-instead-of-executing
