The procedure is the same for PHP5 as it was for PHP4,
with no variations *that I have noticed*.

So, the first question ... have you added/modified/created
the necessary AddModule, LoadModule, and AddHandler
(or is it AddType?) lines in your httpd.conf?

When we moved from PHP v4 to v5, all we had to do was
replace the "4" with the "5" in all those locations.

Of course, it could be something else ...
