Can [you] please post some code?
Can you write a minimal script -- even just
#!perl
print "Content-type: text/plain\n\nTesting 1 2 3\n";
that does work on the server?
If so, that helps narrow down whether it's a server config issue, a
script issue, or what have you.
But so far there isn't enough information to provide more feedback.
Actually, there's plenty of info here. The problem (as virtually all
beginning CGI problems are) is permissions.
Julian, your CGI directory permissions are 700. That means the owner
(probably you) has full access (that's the 7), but the group and other
(everybody else on the system) has no access (that's the 00). So how do you
expect the webserver, which is probably running as 'web', or 'nobody', to
get into the directory to read your files?
Try 'chmod 755 my_cgi_directory'.
