You can do small test on your cgi-bin.Please see below steps. 

1) Create test.pl file in notepad or any text editor with following code

 

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
print "Cgi-bin and perl test ";

2) upload script to cgi-bin folder in ASCII mode

3) Set test.pl permissions to 755

4) Type http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/test.pl  to test script.

If you can see message "Cgi-bin and perl test" then your cgi-bin and perl scripts are working fine on your domain.
