For some reason PHP isn't executing that file.
The file should be somewhere in Apache's web files: probably the htdocs folder. Apache also needs to be set up to run PHP files.

Try this:
This should produce a very long list of settings for PHP. If it doesn't work, PHP isn't running and you need to carefully go through your Apache configuration (httpd.conf) as well as PHP configuration (php.ini) to determine what's wrong. There are lots of references online as to what needs to be in each of those files.
