Well a few things come to mind. Test the script by hand first.
Check the permissions are 755 or the like.
Test a very simple cgi that is known to work.
Here is a simple one... make sure it has chmod 755
------- 8< snip -------- ------- 8< snip --------
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "REMOTE_ADDR = $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR}<BR> \n";
