Apache doesn't execute PHP files?


I've just set up a Slackware 10.2 box to run as a webserver. I'm trying to run the following script:
Code:
<?php

// Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL
phpinfo();

// Show just the module information.
// phpinfo(8) yields identical results.
phpinfo(INFO_MODULES);

?>
Apache doesn't execute the PHP code, instead it simply displays the code as a normal text file. mod_php appears to be installed properly (how can I tell if mod_php is installed properly?) here is /etc/apache/mod_php.conf:
Code:
#
# mod_php - PHP Hypertext Preprocessor module
#

# Load the PHP module:
LoadModule php4_module libexec/apache/libphp4.so

# Tell Apache to feed all *.php files through the PHP module:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

# This will display PHP files in colored syntax form.  Use with caution.
#AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
and of course mod_php.conf contains this line that pulls in mod_php.conf:
Code:
#Include /etc/apache/mod_php.conf
This is pretty much a default slackware install (all packages). any idea what I'm doing wrong?

thanks in advance,

Glad you found the problem It may also be useful to add index.php to your list of possible index files in httpd.conf if you'll be running a PHP based site:

Code:
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
