Halaluia! I just found the problem. After discovering the log files at /private/var/log/apache2, I read the log and found the error "an unknown filter was not added: includes”. So, that led me to think that some module was not loaded and that was eventually found to be mod_include!
Lesson: Read the dang error logs. Lesson: Make sure all the dang modules you need are Included. Thanks for your consideration. I works now.
