Have you installed PHP yourself? Type rpm -qa |grep php and see if anything comes back. Have you followed the install directions in the PHP manual or any other tutorials on the web? Did you change the httpd.conf to recognize PHP?

i did not install php my self.
when i run rpm -qa |grep php find few things related to php.

yes httpd.conf file i changed for php. but i did not follow any manual to how install php. i have this impression when i installed linux then php will be automatically installed but not.

or you could try
$whereis php
to see if a path is returned.

or just try and install it - go to php.net, download the rpm and try
$rpm -i long-name-of-rpm-file

Your best bet is to just download the php manual from php.net and follow the install instructions in it. Never just assume something is installed if you haven't installed it.
