The problem may occur if you have installed php5.6 and php7. Run:

sudo a2dismod php7.0
sudo service apache2 restart

This usually happens when you have multiple versions of php installed on your system(mostly php version 5 and php version 7+).

All you need to do is disable version of php7 and enable php version 5.

Follow these commands-

sudo a2dismod php7.0 (or php 7.2 -if php 7.2 version is installed )

sudo a2enmod php5.6

sudo update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php5.6

and then restart apache server by this command-

systemctl restart apache2
