You need to make sure your CGI script has the appropriate permissions. If
you're using Fetch, after uploading the file, select it in the file
listing, then choose "Set Permissions..." from the Remote menu. In the
Permissions dialog, make sure all three of the Search/Execute boxes are
checked.
If you're using some other FTP client, you'll have to read its manual. :)
