I have some web roots in directories x,y,z, etc. in /var/www/, some of them (not /var/www/) are mounted with options rw,bind,uid=301,gid=301 (301 is uid of user www-data and gid of group www-data). This worked very well in default apache2 of saucy, but no longer with upgraded version in trusty. All permissions of all files and directories under /var/www/ are owned by www-data:www-data. Changing all permissions to 777 (and restarting service) didn't help! I never changed any settings in /etc/... or somewhere.

EDIT: I'm getting 404 error when I request under http://localhost:80/x (error page suggests that apache is running: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80). No substring error or fatal in /var/log/apache2/error.log or /var/log/apache2/access.log. netstat -tupln shows that apache2 is running on port 80.

Any ideas?

EDIT 2: Now the pages are also broken with lighttpd (don't have any CSS layout and edit links are not shown in mediawiki (this has been a behavior caused by malious redirection of apache, but can no longer be fixed by requesting the page under different hostnames)). Apache behaves as described before

The default directory of apache2 seems to have changed from /var/www/ to /var/www/html/. So one might (do one of)

  • moving all content there to profit from the advantages of that change[1] (note that this might mess up mess up due to redirection issues)
  • changing DocumentRoot in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf back to /var/www
