Did you reload/restart the daemon? Otherwise neither configuration changes nor new modules will be picked up. Did you check the Apacher error_log for any messages? Any console errors? Because based on the information you've given so far we might as well look into a crystal ball.

ya i have restarted my apache ...
but i didn check my error log will post the log .. now..

do we need to first shutdown apache while installing php...?

i followed the below procedure...
its from SUN FREEWARE...

php-5.2.1-sol10-x86-local.gz The PHP scripting language - installs in /usr/local/php. PHP requires that libiconv. libxml2, zlib, and either libgcc-3.4.6 or gcc-3.4.6 be installed. PHP is used with apache 2.0.59, not apache 2.2, and mysql which should also be installed along with any packages they may require. PHP needs configuration. php.ini related files are in /usr/local/php/doc/php along with other documentation. php.ini needs to be installed in /usr/local/php/lib. The libphp5.so file is installed in /usr/local/apache2/modules. The following two lines LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
need to be placed in your httpd.conf file in their appropriate places. Finally, you will need to have /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/pgsql/lib before /usr/lib in your library search path like LD_LIBRARY_PATH or similar.

If the error log doesn't show any problems, please post the error message your browser displays, and, if possible, the script itself.
