If you're getting a blank page rather than showing you the php code then 
its likely its running your php code but it doesn't output anything. 
Otherwise it would just show your raw php code.
Have you tried a simple print/echo statement?

Well its stored in /var/lib/mysql but you should never really need to 
access these directly. Even if you're backing things up you're betting 
doing a mysql dump.
