Cgi shell script in httpd

Over the last few days I have been learning the BCHS approach at web design. I am not a web designer (i had to learn CSS as part of this!) but have enjoyed this little adventure. My goal was to make an web interface to view data that i provide in a c++ library and so far i have been pretty successful.
In doing some cleaning up and reorganizing, i have renamed the cgi program. I thought it would be nice to create a shell script with the old name that would spit out a simple page saying the name changed and providing a link to the new cgi app. I made the shell script but for the life of me cannot get it to work. Is this allowed/supported in httpd? If so, any idea what I could be missing?
