If you see the script itself, rather than the output of its execution,
that means apache thinks the file is just a file, not a cgi script.

First ensure you have /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/cgi.load symlinked to
/etc/apache2/mods-available/cgi.load.  Also ensure that, for the
desired directories, you have the following set :
        Options ExecCGI
        AddHandler cgi-script .pl
