The php81 port provides only the PHP 8.1 command line. If you want other PHP Server APIs (SAPIs) install the corresponding other ports. For example, the PHP 8.1 Apache 2 handler is in the php81-apache2handler port. Installing this will also install the MacPorts apache2 port, if you don't already have it installed. It will not use an existing Apple install of Apache.
