Bug Description
Installed packages:
apache2-mpm-prefork (2.2.22-6ubuntu2.2)
libapache2-mod-php5 (5.4.6-1ubuntu1.2)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Allow option override on /var/www
2. Remove /var/www/index.html
3. Create /var/www/index.php with any content (e.g. <?php echo $_SERVER[
4. Create /var/www/.htaccess with FallbackResource /index.php
5. Go to http://
6. Go to http://
Either disabling FallbackResource or gzip encoding solve the issue, so I assume is the combination of the two to cause the problem.

Having "DirectoryIndex index.php" on the .htaccess file solves the issue. It seems the default Apache DirectoryIndex is causing the problem when index.php is not the first default index document.
