Check the web server's httpd error logs.  It should have more information
there.

If not, (and assuming you're on a Unix style host) you can use the 'env'
command to run the CGI script and see what it spits out.

Lastly, you can try 'perl -c script.pl' to make sure it's definitely
compiling correctly -- it could be an old version of a package (or of Perl)
on the new server.
