If this is your first install, you might want
cd /opt/local/apache2/modules
/opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs -a -e -n "php5" libphp5.so
* copy /opt/local/etc/php.ini-dist to /opt/local/etc/php.ini

Question: what is it exactly that I might want to do? Should I copy
those lines from cd ... ini into my terminal? As one line, three
lines?
You can copy and paste the two lines into your Terminal exactly as
they appear:
cd /opt/local/apache2/modules
/opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs -a -e -n "php5" libphp5.so
This should activate the php5 module.
It's further suggesting that you may want to copy php.ini-dist to
php.ini in /opt/local/etc, as a start for your PHP configuration.
Does this have anything to do with the fact that the installation
did not result in a proper httpd.conf, as I expected, but in a file
called httpd.conf.sample which, among other things, has no
LoadModule for php5?
The apache2 port creates the httpd.conf.sample. You can copy this to
httpd.conf as a basis for your Apache configuration.
If it doesn't contain a LoadModule line for the php5 port after you
run the apxs command above, then add one that reads like this:
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
You'll probably also want this, if you don't have it already:
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
</IfModule>
And this, at the end of the <IfModule mime_module> section:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
That should be all you need.
The instructions printed by the php5 port at the end may need to be
updated. Patches to the portfile are welcome.
