I assume the apache was an RPM install as well?

It could be that you updated from a CGI-based PHP to a module-based PHP? 
If so, you'll need to load it with LoadModule.

Also, check that you have the appropriate handler installed for .php - 
it should be there, if it worked before the update, but you never know!

Are there any errors in the logs? They're usually found in either 
/var/logs/httpd/ or /usr/local/apache/logs/
