No icons in Apache directory listings under Sierra

[bedouin]

I have fancyindexing enabled in Apache on my machine running Sierra, but the icons are not appearing in directory listings. The error logs don’t seem to indicate that the client is even trying to retrieve them. How can I get the icons to appear?

Are the icons present? /usr/share/httpd/icons/

 

[bedouin]

Yep.

Actually, if you view the HTML from the listing, the server isn't even linking to the images. All other elements of the "fancyindex" are there.

Do you have the autoindex_module loaded in httpd.conf ?
[doublepost=1539346087][/doublepost]Here's my directory config for the root directory:
<Directory /Users/henry/www/local-root>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
IndexOptions NameWidth=* FancyIndexing FoldersFirst IgnoreCase
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>

Results in this:

And the icons are referenced as so:
<img src="/icons/folder.gif" alt="[DIR]">

Yes, I do:

LoadModule autoindex_module libexec/apache2/mod_autoindex.so

Here's what I have in the .htaccess file for the directory being shared:

IndexOptions FancyIndexing

But this is the output.

Yes, I do:

LoadModule autoindex_module libexec/apache2/mod_autoindex.so

Here's what I have in the .htaccess file for the directory being shared:

IndexOptions FancyIndexing

Rather than using .htaccess, have you considered/tried configuring the directory in httpd.conf? I have had to fight/research with .htaccess directives to get them right, and there might be something else you need to include in .htaccess to make it work. I only use them when absolutely necessary, such as when the server is hosted by an ISP and I don't have direct access to httpd.conf. Here is a partial snippet of my .htaccess file from an ISP hosted server:

<Files *>
    Options +Indexes
    IndexOptions FancyIndexing NameWidth=48 SuppressDescription SuppressLastModified
    AddIcon (IMG,/icons/image2.gif) .gif .jpg .png
    AddIcon (TXT,/icons/text.gif) .htm .html .txt
    AddIcon (PDF,/icons/pdf.gif) .pdf
</Files>
