Edit:

/etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Remove the "#" comment from the line:

Reboot apache2:

service apache2 restart

Solution:

At the terminal entering /etc/apache2/sites-available/ accessing the 000-default file I added below: documentroot /var/www

<Directory /var/www/>
  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
  Order allow,deny
  allow from all
