The installation would have written
$xymonhome/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf.  Did you copy that to the Apache
config file directory, then restart Apache?  It contains the ExecCGI option
for the CGI directory, and without that, Apache doesn't know to execute the
scripts, so it just pushes them out as plain text.
