In normal case changing permission and updating .htaccess should fix this issue, but in your case it is not working, so try to create a host entry and see if it is working. Else it will be related to the server configuration.

a. Create a new folder inside /var/www (example: wordpress - with proper permissions)

b. Copy all files from /var/www/html folder to /var/www/wordpress

c. Create a virtual host entry: sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/wordpress.conf

Add following contents:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName wordpress
    DocumentRoot /var/www/wordpress
    <Directory /var/www/wordpress>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride all
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

d. Update hosts: sudo gedit /etc/hosts

Add new line: 127.0.1.1 wordpress

e. Activate new website: sudo a2ensite wordpress.conf

d. Restart apache: sudo service apache2 restart

Access http://wordpress from your web browser.
