Whenever a program works from the command line but not from a CGI, the
major differences are the environment. Check your environment
variables. Also, CGI's usually run as a user other than yourself, and
possibly on another machine. Check what exactly is different between
the two invocations of your program and one of these things will be
the cause of your error.
