I guess it's best to solve one problem after the other. So above we see 
that the qgis server is working.

We do not see how you installed the server. I am guessing you did a `apt 
install qgis-server`. If that's the case then you should be able to see 
the version of the installed qgis server like this: `dpkg -s qgis-server`.

You need to configure apache so that when it gets the URL 
http://XXXXXXX.fr/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi that the request ends up at 
the qgis server.
