Adding a .cgi handler fixed the problem. Other cgi scripts worked for
me only because they were in a different cgi-bin directory. This cgi
failed because it was in a directory along with .html files, so the lack of
a handler caused it to be treated as a plain file.
Thanks. It is now working fine.

You
