$_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST not working....

Hi guys,
Did a rebuild of Apache through WHM last night, and now for some reason, the $_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST globals aren't working.
I am trying to capture a variable from the address bar using $_GET. I know my code works because it works on my server, but not another one.
Is there something in Apache or PHP that controls this? Why would a rebuild have messed it up?
Cheers.

Perhaps your php.ini was reset to a default in the rebuild. Does the script output an error_log file you can check for a possible cause?
Another option, log into cPanel for the account, and check the error log there. If you need help after that, post the error log.
I don't know much about globals, but if their globals, I know Registered_Globals is OFF by default in /etc/php.ini
Just might need to turn that back on.

I've looked everywhere. The only error I get is the variable is undefined. Register globals should remain off. $_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST will still work without it. Thanks for your input though.
I am trying to compare configurations between servers, and for some reason I'm thinking it's more of an Apache issue. I'm trying another rebuild, but I doubt that will fix it... but it may

Well it seems a rebuild fixed it
Not sure why the rebuild broke it in the first place though.
Thanks.
