By default if you install apache2, php5 and libapache2-mod-php5, it should have worked. If during the install something goes wrong, you should report the errors cause it's pretty stable.
Try to reinstall:
Code:
apt-get --purge remove apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
Check that /etc/apache2 doesn't exist anymore otherwise delete it
Code:
apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
a2enmod php5
