You need to enable mod_rewrite in apache, also make sure .htaccess file provided with vshare is uploaded to your web site.

Thanks. That led me in the proper direction. The final answer turned up on the ubuntu forums.

This fixed it: changing the AllowOverride to all in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default

<Directory /var/www/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
