title: My EC2 AWS Public DNS url (ubuntu serve) is being directed to a different page and a directory is not showing up
body: <p>I set up a virtual server through AWS using an EC2 instance (ubuntu).  I am trying to get my Laravel project up and running.  I have set everything up, and installed apache, php, and mcrypt.  I also used SFTP to upload my Laravel project to the /var/www folder on the server.  </p>
  
  <p>Right now, when I visit the public DNS url: <code>ec2-**-***-***-***.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com</code></p>
  
  <p>It takes me to the "Apache2 Debian Default Page".  Before, it used to be the page that says:</p>
  
  <p>It Works!</p>
  
  <p>This is the default web page for this server. etc...</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure when this changed, but this debian page is saying "it works" at the top as well.  </p>
  
  <p>Anyways, I have my laravel-master folder in this <code>/var/www</code> section.  But when I visit:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ec2-**-***-***-***.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/laravel-master/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am getting a <code>Not Found</code> page.  In the examples I have seen, this should show the directory of files in the <code>laravel-master</code> folder.  </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas what is going on?  </p>
