Thank you.

I'm basically on a stock CentOS 6 system; for clarification, here's what 
rpm returns:
rpm -q php postgresql mysql
php-5.3.3-22.el6.x86_64
postgresql-8.4.13-1.el6_3.x86_64
mysql-5.1.67-1.el6_3.x86_64

One correction that took place is to add .php in the Apache directive like 
this (for a mysql-enabled website); it's a virtual host:
AddHandler server-parsed .html .php

Now at least somethings shows, but the screen is also littered with all of 
the variable settings (sometimes typical with mysql/php 
misconfigurations).

I know of upgrading database issues when moving to postgres 9.1; I also 
know of *major* issues when moving from postgis 1.5.x to 2.0.x
