Yes, your webserver manual. If you're using Apache then you should tell
to apache that uses php5, he doesn't guess IIRC, the same apply if
you're using any webserver like lighthttpd or cherokee. Isn't magic ;-).
BTW, if you're not using php4 anymore then you should purge/remove it
from your system.
