Make sure that, along with the Apache package, you've installed the PHP package and configured Apache to use PHP for .php files.

    Specifically, make sure you have a handler for the application/x-httpd-php MIME type. There should be a SetHandler directive in your configuration that implements this; it will usually be enclosed in an <IfModule mod_php5.c> block. You'll also want one for application/x-httpd-php-source.

It sounds like you either don't have mod_php installed, or you don't have it enabled in Apache.

sudo apache2ctl -M | sort should show you the currently running modules. The PHP module should be in there. If it's not, follow one of the thousand guides for installing it on your OS.
