Okay, I understand now. You're trying to use setuid to get the web server to run BPC as the backuppc user. There are lots of different ways to make a web server run Perl as a specific user/group, and they don't all work.
If you're using Apache, the "SuexecUserGroup" config in your vhost can fix this (requires an optional module to be installed: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/suexec.html). But in any case, your BackupPC configuration is fine, this is a web server configuration problem. If you'd like a hand sorting out your web server config (and you're using either Apache or nginx). feel free to contact me off-list.
