no content items to display

Duh!!!!    

I figured it out.....  As usual:  several sleepless nights, lots of coffee and waisted nerves just to find that magic checkbox to tick.......   
The major problem was TIME....  Yes, time set in the locale tab of the configuration panel.  My server is in the USA and server's time is in the New York time zone.  During the installation Elxis suggested to me to put -7 hours, which I did and that apparently moved my real time 14 hours to the future.  Somehow, content added NOW, was actually published only 14 hours later.  That is why my added content was not appearing immedeately.  I changed the time from -7 to +6 (to make it exactly what it is here now that the USA already switched to the daylight saving time) and the content started appearing without problems.   When we switch to the daylight saving time I'll have to move it +1 hour to catch up.

I am not sure how it calculates time zones, to me -7 sounded as a correct time zone as between Cyprus & New York it is exactly 7 hours difference and USA is ahead of us. 
Sounds like "Back to the Future" movie episode.

Another problem I mentioned above about php5 running as Apache CGI module was solved by comment from Datahel: I added the following line on top of my .htaccess file:

AddHandler cgi-php5 .php

PHP 5 started working without problems.  I added new .htaccess file and php 5 remained working. 

So I guess this topic can be closed. Thanks for all suggestions and help.  I'll send a link once the site is running, but you'll probably hear from me before that.....

Case closed I guess. He had wrong htaccess file.
