    Did you follow all the instructions provided in the Caveats?

    Run brew info php54 to see them again.

    Especially the line:

    To enable PHP in Apache add the following to httpd.conf and restart Apache:
    LoadModule php5_module /usr/local/Cellar/php54/5.4.8/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
