Ivone --

You are using a PERL invocation for php. PHP scripts begin with
<?php

the # sign is a comment in PERL - not in PHP.

To run php as cgi you need to install the php cgi version (as opposed to
the apache modular installation.) That will allow you to run cgi
scripts on the command line.

Best regards,
