    I have also checked with the Xampp for Linux forum and it said to delete the /opt/lampp/htdocs/index.html file, which I did. When i tried to refresh I still got the same Xampp page, so I cleared the cache (recommended on their site.) Now I am seeing:
    Index of /

    Thank you for responding again moshu. Thank you for helping where you could.

    I believe that Xampp places their httpd.conf file under /opt/lampp/etc/

    I have gone into that document and replaced:
    DocumentRoot “/opt/lampp/htdocs”
    with
    DocumentRoot “/var/www/wordpress”

    It is still going to the Xampp default. So I also changed:
    <Directory “/opt/lampp/htdocs”>
    to
    <Directory “/var/www/wordpress”>

    Which also has made no change.

    Any other ideas? Am I even close?

    Moshu,

    Thank you for responding so quickly!

    That documentation assumes that you are able to access WordPress Administration. I apologize for actually putting two issues into the above question.

    The initial issue is not being able to see wordpress at all! I cannot figure out how to get Xampp to point to /var/www/wordpress. I am running Ubuntu Server which means all HTTP access is from another computer. I cannot test via “localhost”. I did try installing Ubuntu Desktop at one point and it would not redirect to /var/www/wordpress either.

    I have been pouring over the Ubuntu, Xampp and WordPress documentation and forums for two weeks (about 30 hours) and cannot find how to do this. I do appreciate you showing me the above document for the second part of the question. Again I apologize for actually having two in the question.
