Michael,
I too have experienced the same problems with the PHP rpms that came with
RH7 and can vouch that you must build PHP from the tarball in order to get
it to work.

I did not include the flag that involved apxs when building apache and all
seems fine. I don't think it is a requirement. If I understand that you
are at the command line and running the command "php phpinfo()", then that
isn't the ultimate proof that you've installed PHP correctly.
Make a page called lookatme.php with the following in it:
<?php
phpinfo()
?>
You should get a page displaying a table with all of the information about
the installation of PHP on your system.
Also, just some information about the new version of Apache that is worth
reading:
http://www.redhat.com/support/manuals/RHL-7-Manual/ref-guide/s1-installation-upgradingapache.html

Probably just a mistake.
Hope this helps,
