Apache giving 404 error after Mac OS sierra update
Solution 1
What worked for me after upgrading from El Capitan to Sierra as well:
1) Uncommenting from /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
LoadModule userdir_module libexec/apache2/mod_userdir.so
LoadModule vhost_alias_module libexec/apache2/mod_vhost_alias.so
Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-userdir.conf
2) Uncomment from /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-userdir.conf
Include /private/etc/apache2/users/*.conf
3) In my /etc/apache2/users/$USERNAME.conf file I had ProxyPass configured as well, and to get it working again I had to re-uncomment the following from my httpd.conf
LoadModule proxy_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy_http.so
4) Optional for PHP: You need to re-uncomment the following from the httpd.conf as well:
LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
5) Of course, restart apache
sudo apachectl -k restart
Things worked for me afterwards, however I am better motivated now to start moving to Vagrant.
Solution 2
In Terminal, head to /etc/apache2 and
sudo mv httpd.conf httpd.conf.sierra
sudo mv httpd.conf~previous httpd.conf
sudo apachectl restart
Worked like a charm for me.
Solution 3
cd /etc/apache2
sudo mv httpd.conf httpd.conf.sierra
sudo mv httpd.conf~previous httpd.conf
cd /etc/apache2/extra
sudo mv httpd-vhosts.conf httpd-vhosts.conf.sierra
sudo mv httpd-vhosts.conf~previous httpd-vhosts.conf
sudo apachectl restart
Solution 4
in /etc/apache2/extra
you will see a httpd-vhosts.conf~previous
that is your previous vhosts.conf file.
just use the config file on it.
Works like a charm to me.
Solution 5
I also updated my El Capitan to Sierra recently and had similar issue. I checked the /etc/apache2/ and extra directory, what I've notices was all the Apache config files were created at the time of update and they looked default but there were also my custom files from el capitan with ~previous in name. All I had to do was to replace those default for those previous and worked like a charm.
