I'm no expert but here are a few steps to try to isolate your Redhat php and apache problems based on what I struggled with. First try a correct syntax for your test(A). Try to access hello.php by goint to http://localhost/hello.php. If this fails then try to run php directly from the command prompt (B). If that fails, start researching php issues on the php.net. If php (B) passes and browser test (A) fails go research apache config
A) Make php classic test file called hello.php. Here is the text that goes in it: <html> <head> <title>PHP Test</title> </head> <body> <?php echo "Hello World<p>"; ?><?php phpinfo(); ?> </body> </html> B) Find php by doing "which php <enter>". Mine says /usr/bin/php. Now run "/usr/bin/php -i >output.html <enter>". If need be, move the output.html to your default web directory and try and read that from a browser.
