Your idea struck me as having merit (as I kicked myself for not having 
thought
of it myself!)
Now the error log tells me something only a little bit different:
[Mon Jul 11 14:43:15.808190 2016] [authz_core:error] [pid 1725:tid 
1972368432] [client 10.10.10.167:48564] AH01630: client denied by server 
configuration: /usr/local/www/hello

Seems we are "kicking the can down the road."
Needless to say /usr/local/www/hello doesn't exist.
sudo locate hello | pager
failed to shed any light on the subject.

ps Just on a whim I added the following:
     <Directory /usr/local/www/hello>
         Require all granted
     </Directory>
to the VirtualHost in the config but to no avail.
