server - Apache won't start - PHP issues?

I'm somewhat of a Ubuntu newb and have recently set-up a ubuntu VPS (on the azure network). I am using webmin / virtualmin as a means to administer the server and quickly * easily create and administer virtual hosting accounts.

After doing some package updayes via the webmin interface, the system rebooted. On relaunching webmin i could see that the apache server wasn't running. When I tried to restart it, webmin displayed the following error:

Failed to start service :

• Starting web server apache2
  
  
  
  • 
    
    
    
    • The apache2 configtest failed.
      Output of config test was:
      AH00526: Syntax error on line 40 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/apn.codeclinic.de.conf:
      Invalid command 'php_admin_value', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
      Action 'configtest' failed.
      The Apache error log may have more information.
    
    
  
  

If I comment out this line it just fails at the next php reference, and if I comment this one out it simply fails on the config file for the next virtual server(website).

So looking at the command shell I ran

sudo apt-get -f install

Which gives me the following areas of interest(it prints out a huge list of things but these are the most notable errors to me):

dpkg: error processing package php5-cgi (--configure):

subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of php5:

php5 depends on libapache2-mod-php5 (>= 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.7) | libapache2-mod-php5filter (>= 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.7) | php5-cgi (>= 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.7) | php5-fpm (>= 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.7); however:

Package libapache2-mod-php5 is not configured yet.

Package libapache2-mod-php5filter is not installed.

Package php5-cgi is not configured yet.

Package php5-fpm is not installed.

dpkg: error processing package php5 (--configure):

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I also tried

sudo apt-get install --reinstall php5 -y

But get the following output:

I'm now really stuck as all my clients websites are down, and stupidly it seems my backup schedule was never setup properly.

So I know I'm stupid, but please help. ;-)
