Try searching for the same in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf Type- gksu gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

In this file you will find AllowOverride and the DocumentRoot. Edit them as you want.

I am using Ubuntu 18.04 Subsystem for Windows 10 and I had that problem plus empty apache2.conf file too. To get back your ordinary files you have to recover your apache2-utils by using the following commands in your terminal :

sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2-utils

sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2 apache2-utils

But don't forget to take your previous work from /var/www/html if you have.

I am trying to do a version of my site that worked with the windows wampp seems that linux variants are not the same or faulty. I was able to make a share across a network work but under apache its not working. I have tried to change all these conf and can not seem to find the right one to allow images to traverse and build on the webpage. I am thinking there is a configuration issue or format issue. SO a blank file is more of a problem but would love a example format to build with. I installed winpress was unimpressed and removed it, so might be something to do and rebuild the apache files. I found this tip so will try it myself.
