In that case you are missing the site_data.inc which should be in the
directory you have configured in Apache to be DocumentRoot for that virtual host.

This isn't the issue here, if you enable register globals, you will
automatically get a variable $something if you have a $_REQUEST['something'],
this setting hasn't anything to do with enabling or disabling any of the $_*
global variable arrays, as those you will always be enabled.
