Are you sure that the owner is the /web directory owner?
And the group is sitexx?
for example the user is username and the site is site20
-rwx--x--x   1 username site20 10078 Feb 20 22:31 mycgi.pl

The other thing to look for is cgi enabled for the site in the GUI site 
settings

To be sure look at the VirtualHost container in httpd.conf.
      You need lines like:
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .cgi
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .pl
