That looks good.

This is fine too.

Here be dragons. In the ScriptAlias directive you are saying your server's
CGI script is under the directory /umeshTest/cgi-bin. But in the Directory
directive you are allowing CGI access to
/home/httpd/html/umeshTest/cgi-bin.
Change that to:
<Directory /umeshTest/cgi-bin>
Options ExecCGI
SetHandler cgi-script
</Directory>
The Directory directive should be in access.conf and the AddHandler and
ScriptAlias directives should be in srm.conf

Also try running the script from the command line and see if it runs
properly. Another thing to help us debug the problem is the relevant error
messages logged in the error_log file (somewhere under /var/log) file.
