I use ssh. I created a cgi-bin directory and deploy a simple progeam called hello.cgi

Then I gave a permission:

> chmod 755 hello.cgi

When I try to enter my website I get the following message:

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

    That error message normally happens when the server encounters an error when running your cgi script. For the best clues on what that error is, as suggested by the error given by apache (your webserver) check the error log (which can vary from installation to installation, but is often found in places like /var/log/apache2/error_log or /usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log)
