It's too soon for the new mod_php5 and mod_php55 packages to have been
built for the FreeBSD.org pkgrepo.  Package builds start on a Wednesday
and take a couple of days.

If you want a setup that will work with currently available pre-built
packages then try nginx + php-fpm + your php app of choice.  There are
plenty of howto-s on the web, like this one:

Mostly they seem to be Ubuntu flavoured, but adapting them for FreeBSD
is easy enough.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
