php-cli outputs instead of executing

Im using Debian testing, i have installed php-cli a开发者_运维知识库nd when i try to execute a php script it output the source instead of executing it.

Example:

 php test.php
 <?
 phpinfo();
 ?>

any ideas how to fix this behavior, i tried reinstalling and purging no results.

Either change that configuration option or, preferably, use the full opening tag: <?php
