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.
(ssl, php5, auth_mysql, userdir)

I'm missing something, probably simple, so assistance appreciated.
Apache 2.2.22 on Ubuntu 12.04(LTS) server. I have, for "site foo"
which uses some Perl scripts:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/foo/cgi-bin/
<Directory /var/www/foo/cgi-bin/>
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
I have tried the ScriptAlias and the Directory with and without
trailing slashes and double quotes, but user error: "The requested URL
/cgi-bin/login.pl was not found on this server" and error.log gives:
"[Mon Apr 08 12:28:40 2013] [error] [client 192.168.x.x] script not
found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/login.pl, referer: http://foo/";
Perl has an @INC: /usr/lib/perl5 and there is an [empty]
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/ -- which I don't want to use. Apache user is
'www-data' and foo is 'drwxr-xr-x 5 root www-data 4096 Apr 3 22:51 foo'
Questions: can my ScriptAlias work? if not what EnvVar should I set
and where?
Many tnx - Paul
