I had no luck with ScriptAlias. I set a UserDir public_html I used ExecCGI and AddHandler similar to you - That was the only way I found to run CGI scripts in Firefox. The Apache documentation does not help so much with Ubuntu. This page helped: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/httpd.html I still found that some things did not work as advertised. I guess it depends on your installation config.Also, I had to load some modules cgi.load and perl.load and some I'm not sure were necessary.
