I just installed Apache and PHP 4.1.1 on my home computer ( Red hat Linux
7.2) from source and they are isntalled without any problem.

If you have already installed apache, then find out the installation
directory ( probably /usr/local/apache) and then see if its bin directory is
in your path. If not add it.

then goto the bin directory and run ./httpd -l.
If you see a line called mod_so.c then you can install PHP as a DSO module
without the source code for Apache. Follow the steps below and it will work.

run configure in your PHP source dir as
./configure --with-apxs [ and rest of the modules you want to enable]
make
make install

If you are using PHP 4.1.1, it comes with builtin support for mysql and is
installed by default or you can run

./configure --with-apxs --with-mysql [ and rest of the modules you want to
enable]
if it says can not find path to apxs, then change the configuration to
./configure --with-apxs=path to apache/bin/apxs [ and rest of the modules
you want to enable]

where path to apache is where apache is installed ( probably
/usr/local/apache)
