Note, you have

try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /srv/www/site.net.net/www/cgi-bin/$fastcgi_script_name;

The first line says "return 404 unless the file $document_root$uri exists".

In general, if the second line does not also refer to exactly the filename
$document_root$uri, you should suspect a problem.

(It can validly refer to a different filename, but probably only where
the fastcgi server is inside a chroot area.)

When you come to use the cgi-bin directory, you'll want to be aware of that.

Cheers,
