What URL are you using?

Have you changed the standard document root? Because unless you have 
these are not the standard places.

The document root: /var/www
The cgi-bin directory: /usr/lib/cgi-bin

But you should really go and look at your apache config, because I have 
also seen cgi-bin in /var/lib/cgi-bin.
