Cacti Server showing source code not Website

[tmallette]

I'm new to Cacti and I installed it on Ubuntu 16.04 server with Cacti 1.1.12. When I try to go the webpage to finish the install I only get what I'm calling the source code and not a web page. I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this problem. I'm posting s screen shot of what I'm seeing.
