I am trying to run a perl cgi script for the first time... under linux redhat8. my apache works fine. localhost gives me the test page. I have this script (very usual)

#! /usr/bin/perl

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# hello.pl - My first CGI program

print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
# Note there is a newline between # this header and Data


# Simple HTML code follows

print "<html> <head>\n";
print "<title>Hello, world!</title>";
print "</head>\n";
print "<body>\n";
print "<h1>Hello, world!</h1>\n";
print "</body> </html>\n";

I have put this file at /html and /cgi-bin as a pl file as well as a cgi file... no way.. netscape displays the text content of the file, but does not execute the script.
so it is just printing the whole textual content of the file... I have chmod 755 the file.. so... what do I have to change and where... please.. if I place the script at /cgi-bin then it gives me an error msgs forbiden.... so?
