The default httpd.conf on the TS boards does not have CGI enabled.
Also, Apache normally recognizes application types by file extension
so it may be easier if you rename the file to use a .cgi extension.

Go to /www/apache/conf/ and on the httpd.conf file add ExecCGI on the
Options directive of the directories where you want to allow CGI
scripts, e.g. <Directory "/www/apache/cgi-bin"> plus others if
applicable. Also make sure you have a line

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

on that file. Restart apache after the config changes with

/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S40apache stop
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S40apache start

You can test whether CGI is working by using a short shell script like

#!/bin/sh
# env.cgi
echo Content-type: text/plain
echo
env

You may need to chmod+s your CGI executable to be able to access
privileged resources (such as /dev/mem for the board ports, timer,
etc.) from a web page that runs as "nobody".
