CGI install under 6.1 on Solaris

Question

          Have configured WL6.1 to use cgi from it's default web app -
          I get the following error when I attempt to execute a script
          Error 500--Internal Server Error
          From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
          10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
          The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling
          the request.
          I have tried specifying the cgiDIR parm as well - no difference.
          web.xml file is currently:
          <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web application 2.2//EN"
          "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd">
          <web-app>
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>CGIServlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>weblogic.servlet.CGIServlet</servlet-class>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>*.pl</param-name>
          <param-value>/usr/local/bin/perl</param-value>
          </init-param>
          <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>CGIServlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>cgi-bin/*</url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>
          <welcome-file-list>
          <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
          </welcome-file-list>
          </web-app>
          HELP!!
          Thanks
