If the Interchange daemon is in fact running, and you get a result from the 
cgi it means, as you correctly guessed, they can't talk to each other.

The cgi probably doesn't have the setuid bit set:

chmod u+s {apache}/cgi-bin/foundation.cgi   (or whatever it is named)

And make sure it is owned by the same user running the interchange daemon.
