I'm using Apache2 on a Debian derivative, which uses a different structure for 
the .conf files, but the lines I have related to php are:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so

I think you might well need the LoadModule line somewhere in your 
configuration; I'd assume it just lives in http.conf in your structure.
