As Matt Palmer has already mentioned the package sets up Alias
directives for apache to make the site visible. 

I'm guessing that you're still using the PHPwiki 1.3.7 package that is
in Ubuntu which does not integrate with apache2 automatically. If so you
have two options:

- Use the PHPwiki 1.3.11p1 package as per my previous email
- Manually link the PHPwiki package into apache2, to do this:

symlink /etc/phpwiki/apache.conf to /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpwiki.conf or
simply Include /etc/phpwiki/apache.conf from the configuration of the
vhost that you want PHPwiki to appear under. 

Does this make sense?

If you're still having problems, can you please supply more details:
- phpwiki package version (dpkg -s phpwiki)
- Apache version (I'm assuming apache2 from above)
- Contents of /etc/phpwiki/apache.conf
- Do the /etc/apache/conf.d/phpwiki.conf
or /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpwiki.conf symlinks exist. 

Cheers
