In httpd.conf when installing the package it told me to add to apache's 
config file:
=== ## from original httpd.conf file
# Example:
# LoadModule foo_module lib/httpd/mod_foo.so
LoadModule php3_module lib/httpd/mod_php3.so
AddModule mod_php3.c
...
    # For example, the PHP 3.x module (not part of the Apache distribution - see
    # http://www.php.net) will typically use:
    #
    #AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
    #AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
    #
    # And for PHP 4.x, use:
    #
    #AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    #AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

    AddType application/x-tar .tgz
    AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3

I think apache needs php3 module loaded (see above)
and php3 needs to have mysql module
