if you have FC3 this is the result of selinux. the one created in the
cgi-bin directory has been created with the right security context.
the one which has been created outside the domain of apache has the
wrong security context. to confim this  type ls -Z on that directory
and see the difference in the context. to fix this run
restorecon -v /path/to/file.

You can take a look the faq here
