Ah, you probably also need to adjust the config for your site.

I have an shtml site, which has:

        <Directory /var/www/site/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews +Includes
                DirectoryIndex index.shtml index.html
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

That +Includes in the Options is probably what you're missing.

Each file in sites-available/ should be particular to a site. I usually
name them after the hostname - sites-available/www.example.com or
something - and then you put in the <VirtualHost *> directive and the
rest of the usual stuff.

That way, you don't touch httpd.conf, apache.conf, etc.

a2ensite/a2dissite is then used to turn websites on and off.

Cheers,

Alex.
