So check for an "Include" directive (bringing in additional config code). Also, 
verify that you are editing the correct config file (you'd be surprised how 
often that happens...). Put in a deliberate syntax error and run a configtest - 
verify the error is detected.

Mainly because you are using a rather complicated setup right-off. Simplify it 
first by moving the directives from the .htaccess to a <Directory> block in the 
main config and replacing the script you are trying to hit with a plain file 
URL. Once you get it working, you can add on the complexity layer-by-layer, 
checking it still works at each step.
