Running programs as FastCGI instead of CGI typically requires some webserver configuration. The mod_fastcgi plugin for Apache offers different options:

When you place a FastCGI capable CGI program in /cgi-bin/ (or any other location configured for CGI scripts), it will run in CGI mode, not in FastCGI mode. The same happens when the program name ends with .cgi (or any other extension mapped to plain CGI).

So, perhaps renaming or moving your program may be sufficient. Ask the webserver administrator / hoster support.
