I'm really not sure what to make of this. Everything in the apache config
looks to be correct; I can't see at all why apache would fail to execute
the CGI vs simply sending you the file.
Can you try two experiments?
First, replace one of the .sh files with a symlink (instead of a hard
link) to the cgiwrap binary. I'd like to see if we can rule out the
hardlink itself being the problem.
Second, can you compare to the xymon-apache.conf with the
xymon-apache-secure.conf.DIST file in the build directory to see if there
were any unexpected changes?
Are there any other files in apache's /conf.d/ directory that might be
taking precedence here?
