Default HELP! root directory mistery

Hi!

Im a noob... and I have the following problem:

default apache html when you input the IP on your browser....

Now, I now that this is more supposed to look like

it to work, Ive copied my desired RootFolder into /var/www/html/ but
still no response....

I thought the default page gave you an explanation? Assuming a fairly
recent version of Apache. The manual certainly does.

Have you copied the contents of your document root folder into
/var/www/html or copied the folder to there (making a sub-directory)?

By default, Apache considers the document root "index.html" file to be the
homepage: /var/www/html/index.html
