    Apache returns a (somewhat non-intuitive) 404 in cases when you have encoded slashes in the request, but do not have AllowEncodedSlashes set to on. To confirm this is the case, check your error log, which likely contains an entry like this:

    found %2f (encoded ‘/’) in URI
    (decoded=’/page/http://google.com/‘),
    returning 404
