Novice needs help installing PHP on second computer

Dell 4500, mem 1g, hd 45g, mhz 2g, Mysql-3.23.54a-linux-i686, PHP-4.30, httpd_2.0.44 The notes "script" that I used on my Dell 4100 mem 250mb, hd 12g, mhz 800, Mysql-3.23.54a-linux-i686, PHP-4.30, httpd_2.0.44, should in theory work on my Dell 4500. Both computers are stand alone systems. **************************************************************** Dell 4100: Mozilla displays the work of one php class, three extended php classes and the processing of five php scripts correctly. This is about 1200 lines of php code are working. **************************************************************** Dell 4500: I can manipulate the mysql tables, "SELECT", "SHOW" "LOAD" etc. I can get Mozilla to display "http://127.0.0.1/php_test.html", but not "http://127.0.0.1/stuff.php" which contains "phpinfo()" or "http://127.0.0.1/php_test.php". Any hints, help, or documentation would be appreciated.
