Quick Install Question

suPHP or FastCGI PHP Handlers Recommended
If you plan on making use of the admin plugin upload feature, we recommend you configure your server to use suPHP or FastCGI as your PHP handler. If your configuration runs as the apache user (often something like "nobody", or "www") then you may experience file ownership and group problems when attempting to edit or delete these files via FTP where you are logged in as your account user.

I tried to install but when I do php does not parse PHP files. So my question is, is the stated info the only reason I would need either or? I dont want to install and then have to reinstall the entire server lol..

Thanks

if your server is not parsing PHP files that would indicate PHP is not installed or not working on your server.
