Apache Questions [was PHP Problems]

Just because its installed doesnt mean its running. Do you see any  
httpd processes running when you run "ps auxwww | grep http"? Is  
anything listening on port 80 when you run "netstat -an"? You probably  
need to load the launch daemon that got installed. Some help text  
about this should have popped up during "port install", but you might  
try:

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemon/org.macports.apache2.plist
