Ubuntu 16.04 switched to PHP 7.0. Try to install the packages manually:
sudo apt-get install php7.0
and make sure you have installed all required php-modules:
https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/admin_manual/installation/source_installation.html#prerequisites

(often it is like php7.0-modulename), use apt-cache search modulename to find the corresponding package. If you installed owncloud from the repo, you might need owncloud-deps-php7.0 instead of owncloud-deps-php5.

Thanks. PHP version was already 7.0.8 and no modules were missing. I removed owncloud-deps-php5, but owncloud-deps-php7.0 was already installed anyway. I still get the text page, which makes me wonder if something needs to be tweaked in the php.ini file or even the apache2.conf file.

Perhaps you need to enable the module:
sudo a2enmod php7.0
and then restart apache

Yes, thats very likely the issue here. The environment is not correctly configured to process php files.

Seemed I had some lingering php5 stuff going on indeed. I purged all php5, fought with APCu for awhile, and finally got it all working again. Thanks!

I did the upgrade a few days ago, I had a fresh OC 9.1 install running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and upgraded the server OS to 16.04 LTS without any relevant issue.
I just had to deal with some Redis problem because I had to use version 2.2.8 of its PHP / pecl module (that's the latest version working with PHP 5.5), so I had to reinstall the latest version to make it run under 16.04.

I have the same issue, and installing php7.0 prompts an uninstall of owncloud. I'm hesitant about what to do just now.

Please create a new thread for this issue giving more details what you did, which repos you're using and similar info.
