You are doing it wrong.  The 'sbin/maui' commands doesn't take start and
restart arguments.  It is a daemon that is simply run, not an init script.

Verify that your maui.cfg has a good SERVERHOST parameter.

Restarting pbs_server won't generally solve maui problems.

You executed helloworld.pl and sent the output to qsub.  I think you wanted to
do this:
   echo "perl helloworld.pl" |qsub

(which will still fail at runtime unless helloworld.pl happens to be in your
home directory.)
