This looks like it found the file, opened it (0x7803f5d0 is the pointer 
to the FILE object returned by `fopen'),and then closed it.  It doesn't 
tell why it failed to use its contents.  In fact, I'm led to believe it 
actually did use its contents, and the problem is elsewhere.

What exactly didn't work and made you think that config.ps isn't found?
