Probably true. It's quite likely not a good idea to install under /root. Would suggest you perhaps made a new user account (xymon), with a home directory, say /home/xymon, and installed there.
Also, your specific error is because you do not have the 'alias' module in your Apache configuration. Check /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf for something like: LoadModule alias_module modules/mod_alias.so This should be there and not be commented out. -Alan

Your user running Apache, probably apache, can not get into /root or it's subdirectories.
Do not put www files in /root - use /var/www/html or something.
