 * Hi,
 * Thanks for making this fantastic plugin. I used it before on one of my sites 
   and had a great experience.
 * I recently tried duplicating another one of my WordPress sites but ran into an
   issue during deployment. After clicking the run deployment button, everything
   was running smoothly for about 30 seconds and then the page appeared to refresh
   and PHP Code displayed.
 * [http://test2.ehs-construction.com/installer.php](http://test2.ehs-construction.com/installer.php)
 * Looks like every page now displays PHP code.
 * [http://test2.ehs-construction.com/wp-admin](http://test2.ehs-construction.com/wp-admin)
 * I wiped everything out and tried again, but had the same issue. Any suggestions
   would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

 * AJ: Your testserver does not process .php files and instead delivers the .php
   files as plain sourcecode text to the browser. This includes your wp-config.php
   which contains your database credentials.
 * Maybe PHP is disabled/not installed on the testserver or needs some special .
   htaccess which might have been overwritten or similar. Would suggest you contact
   your server-provider about this.
