    If you want the content under /dashboard to be available at the root on http://localhost, you need to point your site’s webroot to that directory, so it’s the entry point for your web server.

    Open /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf in a text editor of your choice and find

    <Directory "/var/www">

    edit the path to point to your dashboard, something like that:

    <Directory "/var/www/dashboard">

    as final step you need to restart your apache2

    sudo service apache2 restart

    It may happen if installation of WAMPP/LAMPP/XAMPP stack software (Windows/ Linux) is a fresh one.

    If so, in this cause it is happening due to a statement in index.php (automatically created file during installation) file which is in root folder of the fresh installation of wampp/lampp/xampp stack.

    You can simply remove/rename/ replace this index.php file or comment the following lines in index.php

    if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && ('on' == $_SERVER['HTTPS'])) {
    $uri = 'https://';
} else {
    $uri = 'http://';
}
//$uri .= $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
//header('Location: '.$uri.'/dashboard/');
exit;

    If it is not the cause try these things in depends on your os/server

    1)create virtual host Windows xampp

    2)create virtual host apache

    3)create virtual host Lamp Linux distributions
