You can be goofed on the path e.g. by

• Alias directives - Alias cgi-bin "/path/to/cgi"
• symlinks
• chroot environment

Also, your directories belong to myname:myname (user:group) and their flags are drwxrwxr-x, so they are likely not writeable by apache (if apache doesn't run with UID/GID of myname).

If you want to execute the cgi scripts on behalf of another user than the one apache is running under, have a look at suexec (link points to apache 1.3 doc).
