Thank you for your answer. I change the code to the one you gave me.

When i do "perl hello.pl" it prints the right html without any error.

When i try to run it with apache, here is the error in the browser :  
"Internal Server Error"
and in the log : "[Tue Jan 16 09:26:01 2007] [error] [client my ip  
adress] Premature end of script headers: hello.pl"

Here is the vhost.conf configuration for this host :

         ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/default/duck-art.com/user/htdocs/ 
cgi-bin/
         <Directory "/home/default/duck-art.com/user/htdocs/cgi-bin">
             AllowOverride None
             Options None
             Order allow,deny
             Allow from all
         </Directory>
