Thanks folks,
Bill Luebkert showed me that three of my scripts were actually DOS files,

Hi,
When a CGI script runs from the command line but not from the web server,
a common culprit is permissions. Be sure that anything the script does,
like create files, write to files, read files, execute commands, etc, are
allowed for the web server user and group.
