Disabling script execution on Apache2

Question

On a ubuntu-10.04 and Apache2 I am trying to disable PHP execution on /var/www/upload directory. So I've added the following to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default:

< Directory /var/www/upload/> AddType text/plain .php < /Directory>

Then of course I've restarted the Apache2 service.

However, according to my tests, PHP is still being executed on the upload directory.

Anyone knows what I'm missing here?

What happens if you `chmod -R a-x /var/www/upload/*` ? (Remove execute permission on all files in `/var/www/upload` ? — Darth Android, Jul 18 '11 at 16:49
Yes that's a solution :) , but I'd like to do that from Apache configuration. I've been fighting with this for a couple of hours and still nothing :/ — lisa1987, Jul 18 '11 at 17:13

Try using the apache directive 'RemoveHandler' in directory context,
