You are using apache, no?

You don't want to read the file, you want to read the url. Otherwise
it will not be preprocessed by PHP (since apache does that, and apache
isn't involved in local files).

I donno. The problem is that apache is not preprocessing .php files
with php. Did you reload apache after loading the php module?
(/etc/init.d/apache reload). You'll know this works when you can load
a trivial file /var/www/info.php:
<?
phpinfo();
?>

I'm neither, but I'm subscribed to the RC bug list.
