httpd.conf ... wont run perl?

Hi guys,

I'm just trying to setup a new domain, with perl script access on one of my server.

I currently have;

Code:
<VirtualHost 123.123.123.123:80> 
DocumentRoot "/home/anewby/web/sites/www.academic.com" 
ServerName www.academic.com 

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.htm index.shtml index.php4 index.php3 index.phtml index.cgi 

CustomLog /home/cdelingp/web/admin/logs/traffic/log.www.academic.com.txt "combined" 
ErrorLog /home/cdelingp/web/admin/logs/errors/error.www.academic.com.error 

</VirtualHost>

123.123.123.123 is replaced with my real IP address, and the same fior www.academic.com, which is replaced with the real domain.

The actual site works (at basic root level, with an index.html file). However, as soon as I try to run http://www.domain.com/install.cgi, it screws up.

I know that it *should* work, as we have a couple of other sites running on the same server, so it shouldn't hopefully just be a silly configuration error by me :(

TIA for any suggestions/help.

Cheers
