 1) Did you mean /var/www/html/sql-ledger ?
                          ^^^^
On my Redhat 7.1 the "standard" place for webserver documents and scripts
is /var/www/html/  .../var/www/ should be ok if you set DocumentRoot to
this in httpd.conf *and* made .pl scripts executable in that directory.

 2) If you are using /var/www/html/sql-ledger be sure that an AddHandler
line is set to:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
-or-
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
(I can't remember what the default line was)
