There are two issues: the apache multiviews option is what's causing apache
to find mypage.php when you don't want it to. That is either set in an
.htaccess file somewhere, or the main apache conf file
/etc/apache2/apache.conf (in default Ubuntu installations).

The reason the contents are being displayed is that your system is not
recognizing it as a php script, because php is not installed or
misconfigured.

I would uninstall what you have and install it all this way:

 sudo apt-get install lamp-server^

That should install and configure all the php, etc stuff.  Or google on the
php displaying contents and find the correct handlers and settings.
