You seem to be trying to run the .php file directly. This won't work; you
either need a #! line at the beginning, or you need to run it via PHP.
So either:
#!/path/to/php
as the first line, which will mess things up when it's run via the web, or
change your cron entry to:
*/15 * * * * /path/to/php /path/to/makeRss.php
... as I'm assuming it's currently something like:
*/15 * * * * /path/to/makeRss.php
