I've installed xymon on fedora 22 using the terabithia.repo. The installation completed without errors.
Do I need to take further steps to get it working ? I can't seem to bring up a xymon webpage.
Your Apache works OK otherwise? Do you get any error message on your browser when you go to http://xymon.server.name/xymon/? Perhaps have a look at the Apache error_log file to see if it's complaining about something?
What packages did you install?

Have you configured a webserver (ex. apache2, httpd)?

Hi
Yes, its the default one for fedora 22. I can browse to the host and get the welcome page, http://host/xymon brings up an empty directory listing with no files.
I've checked for the xymon.conf in the /etc/httpd/conf.d directory and even tried uncommenting this line :-
DocumentRoot /var/www/xymon
but that has made no difference so I will replace the #

Could it be because I hadn't started xymon ? I've found xymon in /usr/bin, but I'm struggling with the correct syntax to start it off

On Fedora 22, it'll be systemd controlled, however "/sbin/service xymon start" (or 'restart') should work.
If something truly unusual happened, you can reset the systemd unit file with "systemctl preset xymonlaunch.service"
Tailing the log files in /var/log/xymon/ (specifically, xymonlaunch.log and xymond.log) might provide useful info as we...

Thank you so much, I now see my xymon display.
I'll read through some documentation now on how to add services I would like to monitor.
Could you clarify that I need to run a xymon client on every host I wish to monitor ? if this is correct, where should I get the client from ?

You only need a client on hosts where you want to monitor things like disk, memory, CPU and other "internal" states and metrics. External states, such as whether a web server is responding to connections on port 80, can be tested by the Xymon server without any client installed on the host.
Terabithia has a "xymon-client" package that you would install on a host (unless it's the Xymon server, in which case you don't install xymon-client because it's already included).
