You do use the /var/www directory for apache. The problem, as someone else mentioned, is that there is another webserver running on it out of the box, so you need to disable it and the associated mess with systemctl:
systemctl disable cloud9.service systemctl disable gateone.service systemctl disable bonescript.service systemctl disable bonescript.socket systemctl disable bonescript-autorun.service systemctl disable avahi-daemon.service systemctl disable gdm.service systemctl disable mpd.service Now we can use the beaglebone more like a headless linux machine. Last time I played with it, apache was already installed (!) but running on an alternate port. So lets fix that - open /etc/apache2/ports.conf and change this: NameVirtualHost *:8080 Listen 8080 to this: NameVirtualHost *:80 Listen 80 Save it and restart apache: apachectl graceful Then you should see the "It works!" page by navigating to the beaglebone's IP address. Apache runs just fine on the beaglebone - much faster than the pentium II that I used to to learned linux on...
