If you are using php in a webserver environment, you need to install
the appropriate module that will allow access to php. In most cases
this means installing the apache php module. If you are running wheezy
-- which seemingly you are -- the repo apache is version 2.2 ---
Things change with apache 2.4 and Debian jessie, so be careful about
this later on...

Anyway, find and install the apache php module...
sudo apt-cache search apache | grep php

sudo apt-get install "whatever is appropriate"

This should get you the module. Then you need to make sure the module
is enabled for apache...

sudo a2enmod php5

Then you need to restart apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
...
This should work even if you have systemd versus sysvinit. There are
wrappers installed for backward compatibility. However, if you have
systemd installed, it's probably a good idea to practice the new
command set...
