[tlug] perl scripts not executing

Hi all,
I'm trying to get some perl scripts running under apache using mod_cgi.
Shell scripts work fine but the perl stuff won't run, I get the following
errror
[Thu May  9 14:18:32 2002] [error] (2)No such file or directory: exec of
/var/www/cgi-bin/test.cgi failed

I've tried running them at the shell prompt with the results below. The hash
bang line looks correct and the permissions are correct.

Shouldn't perl scripts run straight from the shell prompt as at the bottom
of the following session?
Thanks
Brett
