php not reading file properly

I have this snippet of code that is supposed to read the apache access log and display it: <?php $myFile = "/var/log/httpd/access_log"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'r'); $theData = fread($fh, filesize($myFile)); fclose($fh); echo "This weeks apache log (clears every sunday morning):". substr($theData,0,2000); ?> For some reason, it displays the logs when I run the php file thru terminal: php -f /web/apache.php but not when I access it thru the web. when I browse to it, it just displays the static text ("This weeks apache log (clears every sunday morning):"), not the log text. Very confused, zootboy
