In what way can I make this www folder appear in the var directory? I read some of the permissions, but because the folder is not found, I can not give it permission.

If the directory www does not appear after configuring what is known as Lamp you can create yourself the directory with the following command
sudo mkdir /var/www
Once this is done you must configure the permissions of this directory so that your user can read and write about it without problems, basically doing the following:
- Agregar tu usuario al grupo www-data
usermod -a -G www-data tu_usuario
- Cambiar el dueño y grupo del directorio www a www-data
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www
- Dar permisos de lectura y escritura a los miembros del grupo
al que pertenece el directorio www
chmod -R g+rwx /var/www
It seems to me that you installed the Xampp program. You should know that Xampp and LAMP are two different ways to have an apache server on your Ubuntu. It is not the same and therefore the structure and location of your folders are usually different.
The Xampp program has as the root of the apache server the /opt/lampp/htdocs/ folder. This is the folder you are looking for.
The LAMP server if it is in /var/www . You can not find this folder because you did not install LAMP , you installed Xampp .
