Also need to see the error_log entries from the back-end httpd
server that's serving from the documentroot. The proxy server's logs
(whether it should be there or not) only show the proxy issues, not
the issues that are causing the 404s, so aren't really relevant to
the 404 issue. The back-end server's logs will indicate why the file
can't be found, or generally at least pretty good hints.
