Dumb things I would check:
1) Does /usr/bin/fortune exist? What permissions does it have?
2) Switch to the www-data user (or whichever user Apache is running as)
and run /usr/games/fortune
Finally, it's possible that Apache/PHP is configured such that scripts
can only access executables in some folders (e.g. /usr/bin/cgi-bin/*).
You may have to move or make a symlink there for it to work.
Good luck!
