Why index.html is called instead of index.php from the root directory? [duplicate]

Question

I have two files on my root directory named 'index.html' and 'index.php'. when I browse 'localhost/dir_name' it loads 'index.html'. why 'index.php' is not loaded on the browser..??

index.html is the default DirectoryIndex. Read more here. — user2959229

if you want to load index.php you will need .httaccess at root code for that should be

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
