Apache & CGI error 500


Running Fedora 2, Apache 2.0.49

Sorry - I know this question has been asked / answered 1000's of times but i just cant get it to work!!!

cgi in apache...im sure its a problem with my httpd.conf file

(first post wont let me use a url so change the ,)
my full httpd.conf is at www,waxapple.com/httpd.conf.txt

i have chmod'ed the test.cgi file to 777
ran 'perl test.cgi' in terminal and it works 100%

just always get '500 internal server error'

been looking for hours but cant find a working script example!!

Code:
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>


<Directory "/var/www/html">

    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

    AllowOverride None

    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

</Directory>
Add option ExecCGI


Code:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
i like to use
Code:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
