Ok so ... problem was:
no sethandler in apache2.conf -- and I can assure you i didn't edit that out!!! I have no idea how it got deleted but I suspect it had to do with deleting one of my virtual servers that was on the same domain
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
resolved the issue
The next issue is the DNS that I'm still working on
