New description:

 After installing php52 with apache2 support it guides the user to enable
 the module within apache. Unfortunately the default configuration it
 provides is not correct:

  - missing documentation: There is no mention that an additional Include
 line has to be added to the apache httpd.conf: "Include
 conf/extra/mod_php.conf ".
  - Incorrect default module is being checked for in the mod_php.conf file:
 /opt/local/apache2/conf/extra/mod_php.conf looks for a module
 "mod_php5.c", but it is loaded as "libphp5" in httpd.conf. Either the name
 should follow the mod_php convention, then it should be changed in the
 httpd.conf, or the mod_php.conf file should be updated to use "libphp5".

Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 This issue might also affect php5, php5-devel, php4. See also #12108, of
 which at least the first part of this ticket might be considered a
 duplicate.
