Getting PHP running with Apache requires you to make a change to the config files, so that Apache knows to load the mod_php module when it starts up.
Put this line in your /etc/conf/apache2 file (on a Gentoo server at least - might be different on other distros) APACHE2_OPTS="-D PHP4" (If you need SSL support, then you would also have a "-D SSL") you'll have to restart Apache for the change to take effect. You might also need to add the mod_php to your apache2.conf file (/etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf on my server). As for reading your old apache .configure info, if you can get php running before you upgrade Apache, then you can load a php page into your browser with the following line in it: <?php phpinfo(); ?> This will display what options PHP has access to, and down near the bottom (or is it the top?) of the page will be the .configure information for Apache.
