The DocumentRoot setting is, "conveniently" not in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. Instead, it's "conveniently" in /etc/apache2/a/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf — apparently so that different ports, say 80 and 8080, can look at different file systems. Changing DocumentRoot there from /var/www to /opt/www makes my server work.
