I have a web server running the latest version of Ubuntu, LAMP stack and everything else required to run a local server. I managed to install wordpress on localhost/wordpress. And going to just localhost brings up "This is a test page...." When I type in the IP of the ubuntu running system on another network, i get the "This is a test page..." properly as it should come, however, when I go to myip/wordpress it says that a PHP file is missing in /etc/wordpress/somelongthingithaticantremember. What have I done wrong and/or what should I do to fix it? Thanks for your time, Yash.

press ctrl+alt+t. in that terminal create that symbolic link.for that you should create a folder in /var/www
cd /var/www
mkdir yourfoldername
then create the symbolic link for it from that your wordpress folder
sudo ln -s /home/path/to/yourfoldername/ /var/www/yourfoldername
after that, gives the file permission to that folder.
chmod 777 -R /home/path/to/yourfoldername
then try it in your browser as you done before.(remember 777 gives the full permission)
