I just checked log files and it says this [Fri Nov 08 22:20:51 2002] [warn] module php4_module is already loaded, skipping
[Fri Nov 08 22:20:44 2002] [warn] child process 20691 still did not exit, sending a SIGTERM
As the logs are saying, you have the PHP module already loaded before Apache reaches "LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so" into the httpd.conf file at startup. Seems like your shellscript looks at the currently loaded modules and starts them for you, according to your requests at installation. (httpd start/stop does something more than starting isn't it ?)

PHP can be installed as a dynamic module for apache (then U need LoadModule directive), as a static module is directly compiled in apache (then is no need for loading it being already compiled into and started by the shellscript together with the main application), or as a CGI application (command-line if you want) this being the best for using PHP without Apache. Three different configurations suited for different needs, and you cannot have two of them in the same time.

My questions are :

What errors have you there ?
- PHP code can be read in the browser ?
- The php file is served for download ?

.. these two being the most common for a failed PHP setup.

More info will be helpful. - Not working - cannot route anyone to the right solution.
