  • Thanks a lot, I've copied the lot and will implement everything. It's a lot to learn. It turns out that the most urgent issue was a trailing space behind the name of the .htaccess file. So it was .htaccess and not .htaccess. A world of pain because of a trailing space. Commented Feb 18 at 17:15
  • You could not have known but you were right in suggesting that the .htaccess file wasn't doing anything. Of course it wasn't, I got the filename wrong. It's satisfying that I should leave apache2.conf alone. Why else would nt2.conf exist in sites-available? It's all supposted to be modular right? How else can these files remain safe from bad people? I removed everything I added in there and everything works. I added all the changes in nt2.conf and set the ServerName to localhost. I'd like to upvote you because you've given me much useful info and you were on the right track. Commented Feb 18 at 18:43
