This is the problem of your configure for Apache.You may take a look at
apache's config file and look for this section:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/home/apache1.3/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/home/apache1.3/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Here the PATH in the "ScriptAlias ..." and "<Directory ...>" is the CGI
executable path.Putting the scripts under this path and give a try again.
