MythTV changed my default Apache server

I have recently upgraded one MythTV system and installed another. In
both cases the default web page for the computer is
</var/www/mythweb->/usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/index.html> instead of
/var/www/index.html that I expected Apache to use. I have failed to find
a reference to the new default pages in the Apache configuration files
that I have looked at so far. How do I restore the default to either
/var/www/index.html or to a subdirectory of /var/www that I can choose?

Not sure what distro or packages you are using, but on Fedora 16 using
atrpms, the mythweb package throws down the nicely behaving file
/etc/httpd/conf.d/mythweb.conf which only has a configuration for the
subdirectory. If I hit the root URL, I get Apache's default test page.
My httpd.conf is unchanged from default:

[root [at] ham ~]# grep ^DocumentRoot /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"

I would look around in whatever httpd/conf.d files exist as well as
httpd.conf some more.

Sorry, that was a foolish omission. I'm using Mythbuntu. The new install
was 12.04. The upgrade was to 10.04.4
