I have a problem: I've just installed LAMP, and at some point I realized that /var/www/html/index.html is missing.
How can I get it back? If this file is the same for all machines, can anyone tell me where I can download it?

index.html or index.php is the starting file of your web page.. (example.com usually is the same as or .html) If you don't have none of these files create one and start inserting your lines of html (...)
First find the package to reinstall...
lxd: net12-david-favor-zesty # dpkg -S $(which apache2) apache2-bin: /usr/sbin/apache2 Now force reinstall the package.
sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2-bin And this might be overkill. Likely this will also do the trick...
sudo dpkg-reconfigure apache2 Or you can just...
mkdir -p /var/www/html echo "Default Page" > /var/www/html/index.html To have a simple default page.
