I just tried this on my web server (apache) and it worked. First confirm your web server is configured correctly to execute cgi scripts by running <webroot>/cgi-bin/printenv. This script is provided with the Apache installation just for this purpose. If the script runs, you know your cgi handler is configured correctly. Then, I would start looking at file permissions.
