Using php form the command line

[Serg B.]

The package that you have installed is most likely an apache module...

What you need is a package called php5_cli. After installation it will
be located in the directory: /usr/bin/php

To find out the exact name (incase I am incorrect) you can try this:
apt-cache search php5 | grep cli
