Please keep the bug CC-ed so everyone can follow along.

I'm pretty sure this is not an owncloud bug, but most likely a error in your 
apache installation/configuration.

Do other php files work or are only owncloud's php files not working?
To test that, create /var/www/test.php and put in the following contents:
<html>
<head><title>PHP Test page</title></head>
<body>
<h1>PHP Info</h1>
<?php phpinfo(); ?> 
</body>
</html>

When you then request http://<server>/test.php and you only see a heading with 
"PHP Info" then that means the appropriate php module isn't installed or loaded.
"aptitude search ~ilibapache" should at least return "libapache2-mod-php5" and 
"ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ | grep php" should return "../mods-
available/php5.conf" and "../mods-available/php5.load".

If that's not the case, then it surely is an apache/php install/config problem.
