Sounds like your Handlers are missing.  Do you have this file, with this in
it?

/etc/apache2/modules.d/70_mod_php5.conf
<IfModule !mod_php5.c>
LoadModule php5_module    modules/libphp5.so
 AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .phtml
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
 DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml
