Conditional Statement confusion PHP

EDIT : Damn... It was all about Path to the file and somehow I didn't thought about restructuring :| thanks to @Machavity I found the problem.

What is wrong with this code ?

If $foo is set and file exist file_exist() result should be 1. else if $foo is set but file does not exist file_exist() result should be 2. else result should be 3.

But I am only getting result 2 for all the three conditions. There gotta be something wrong with the second part of the elseif.

if ( isset ( $foo )  && file_exists ( 'bar.php' ) )
{
    echo '1';
}
else if ( isset ( $foo )  &&  ( ! file_exists ( 'bar.php' )  ) )
{
    echo '2';
}
else
{
    echo '3';
}

Normally I don't like wrapping but try restructuring like this. This way you have a better idea of what's failing

if(isset($foo)) {
    if(file_exists('bar.php')) {
        echo '1';
    } else {
        echo '2';
    }
} else {
    echo '3';
}
