Not really a freebsd--more of an apache question so I'd direct future
questions in that direction... (see http://apache.org for mailing
list, etc)

Anyway, you want to check the errorlog (see where it is by looking at
your httpd.conf file)--stderr goes there w/apache and you'll probably
see what the problem is.  Remember to get your mime headers
right.... or Use CGI.pm... and so on.
