it just isn't displaying errors, doing all this nonsense with file
exists is a waste of time, just add two lines to the top of your script
(that includes the file):

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','on');

(or set these values in the php.ini if you have access to that)
and look at what that tells you. You might not understand the error at
first, but hopefully you will. My guess is that it will tell you it
can't parse your included file.
