title: apache2 not opening index.html (404 Not Found)
body: <p>I had several virtualhosts running with wordpress before. I uninstalled Wordpress to use my own website (HTML and CSS) but now I get an error &quot;404 not found&quot; saying &quot;Not Found -
  The requested URL was not found on this server.&quot; Can someone tell my why it is not opening the index.html file or where the problem could be found?</p>
  <p>Here is my VirtualHost:</p>
  <pre><code>&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
      # The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
      # the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
      # redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
      # specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
      # match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
      # value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
      # However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
      #ServerName www.example.com
  
      ServerAdmin jw.webmaster@domain.com
      DocumentRoot /var/www/domain.com/public
      ServerName domain.com
      ServerAlias domain.com
  
      DirectoryIndex index.html
      
      # Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
      # error, crit, alert, emerg.
      # It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
      # modules, e.g.
      #LogLevel info ssl:warn
  
      ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/domaincom_error.log
      CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/domaincom_access.log combined
  
      # For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
      # enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
      # include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
      # following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
      # after it has been globally disabled with &quot;a2disconf&quot;.
      #Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
  &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
  
  # vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
