    I'm on an unmanaged package, and they told me I should find a sys admin to install it for me.

    "PHP and MySql is installed by you via the Site Manager "

    Have you tried looking there?

    If you on unmanaged package you should have ssh access to server.
    Try this to see if php is installed:

    php -v

    Maybe you like to pay for someone to do it as it does takes time to manage servers :)

    To check if php is installed, try

    php -v

    If it say command not found, PHP is not installed on your server.

    To install php on linux try

    yum install php

    a vps without any control panel do not come with any PHP..
    you can install PHP by source.. however, make sure you had apache installed first..
