php is not processing the file. There's a few reasons for this, but the first thing I would check is the permissions of the file. From the directory try $ ls -oa This should tell you who owns the file and what it's permissions are. You mentioned that you copied it as root, you could change it's ownership to www-data. again from the directory try. $ chown www-data test.php then run ls -oa to ensure the change took place. Chris.
