When I do this :

sudo a2dissite

I get

Your choices are:

meaning all sites are disabled.

When I put my IP local network address in the browser, I get the default Apache page.

http://192.168.1.101/ (putting this in the browser address bar gets me the default apache page)

Stopping apache with 

sudo service apache2 stop

gives me the 'This site can’t be reached', so apache is serving that default page.

So, is it proper for the apache default page show up when no sites are enabled?

Followup : how would I make a different directory the default? I have a test.conf set up 

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.2:80>

    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /home/myusername/websites/wp-test-site/site

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

I thought that enabling that would make the default site folder /home/myusername/websites/wp-test-site/site, but it does not.

Yes Im restarting with sudo.

Add .htaccess file to the document root. Change the default file to be shown as follows

DirectoryIndex index.php default.html

Now put some index.php in document root directory. Next you can point from index file where to point the user.
