Enabling .htaccess file to rewrite path (not working)
All the tutorials tell me to edit the: /etc/apache2/sites-available/default but this file doesn't exist for me. Within this file I would have to edit the:
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
#AllowOverride All
#AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo Indexes Limit Options=All, MultiViews
Order allow,deny
allow from all </Directory>
What should the file look like and should I create it myself?
Aslo I do have a 000-default.conf file but the above 'code' isn't in there either.

For apache version 2.4 and later, you have to go to
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
You have to edit that file (you should have root permission). Change directory text like this;
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
Now restart apache.
service apache2 restart
Hope it works.

The important line here isAllowOverride All, this means all settings can be set (overridden) in.htaccessfiles. See docs: httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#allowoverride

The best way is :
Edit or create a config file
/etc/apache2/conf-available/httpd.conf
Add
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All

Enable the config file
sudo a2enconf httpd
Restart or reload Apache
sudo service apache2 restart
or
sudo service apache2 reload
It's done!

If you don't want to repeat the same configurtion at each upgrade / update
The best way is :
Edit or create a config file
/etc/apache2/conf-available/httpd.conf
Add
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
Enable the config file
sudo a2enconf httpd
Restart or reload Apache
sudo service apache2 restart
or
sudo service apache2 reload
It's done!
