I have, in http.conf:
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
</IfModule>
Which loads index.php by default if it's present, otherwise index.html
Neither 'redirects' to the other.
I've never used a site.conf in this way, but I have overridden the default in a site conf:
DirectoryIndex index.htm
for example.
Wordpress has a pretty complicated .htaccess file, did you check there?

Okay, I added those three lines to my
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/sitename.conf file:
.
.
.
DirectoryIndex index.html
# DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
</IfModule>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
.
.
.
and restarted Apache2.
Now when I browse to sitename.org, I get the index.html file, and when I
browse to sitename.org/index.php, I still get the index.html file. So
nothing has changed.
I'm still doing something wrong?

I'd be happy to go the .htaccess route, but at this point, I don't have a
clue as to where to begin with this information you've provided. I think
you've only demonstrated that .htaccess has complexity, not that you've
demonstrated the specific complexity I'm needing to reach my goal?
Thanks!

Which I am able to do. In fact, something has to specifically tell apache to NOT load a file that is specified by a full path. DirectoryInde only affects what loads the you laid a path ending in /

The global config files will not override index.html to index.php, but the .htaccess might.
Googling for a wordpress .htaccess I see the default config contains MANY rewriting conditions.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^webdav
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

If I'm understanding you, this is not what I want; both index.html and
index.php exist. I just need a means of picking either via URL.

No; it's my understanding that anything I can do in an .htaccess file I can
do in the main global config files, that they're mostly just for overrides
to those global config files, so I've just focused on the main global
config files.
But if .htaccess will solve my problem, I'm happy to go that route.
Thanks, though!
