Permalinks include 'index.html' where they shouldn't

    I’ve just moved OS to Ubuntu and have brought over some themes I created. I want to make some adjustments to them. So, I created sites with virtual hosts and added the appropriate theme for each. I have tested two now, and both have the same problem: pages created end up with the url:
    http://website/wordpress/index.php/page/

    Which I’d expect to be (and has in the past):
    http://website/wordpress/page/

    I suppose it wouldn’t be such a problem, if it wasn’t for the fact my page templates don’t work, presumably because they’re not supposed to recognise /index.php/pagename.

    I searched and couldn’t seem to find anyone else with the same problem. Can anyone help?

    Thanks.

    EDIT –
    I changed the permalinks setting to ‘default’ and then to ‘post name’ – it has taken index.php out, but now I’m getting a 404 not found error despite the pages existing?
    I’ve created a .htaccess file (there wasn’t one before) which looks like this:

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

    (the second block is the code WordPress provided when I changed the permalinks settings)

    How you configure the virtual hosts? I think you might need the proper Directory directive. I do it like this for WordPress:

    NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin webmaster@manageablesites.com
     ServerName manageablesites.com
     ServerAlias www.manageablesites.com
     DocumentRoot /srv/www/manageablesites.com/public_html/
     ErrorLog /srv/www/manageablesites.com/logs/error.log
     CustomLog /srv/www/manageablesites.com/logs/access.log combined
 <Directory />
  Options FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
 </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@hugthoughts.com
    ServerName hugthoughts.com
    ServerAlias www.hugthoughts.com
    DocumentRoot /srv/www/hugthoughts.com/public_html/
    ErrorLog /srv/www/hugthoughts.com/logs/error.log
    CustomLog /srv/www/hugthoughts.com/logs/access.log combined
 <Directory />
  Options FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
 </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
