If you're getting 404 errors for UTF-8 URLs on your live Apache server, there may be a problem with the configuration of your server or Django project. Here are a few things you can try:

1. Check the Apache configuration: Make sure that Apache is configured to handle UTF-8 URLs properly. This may involve adding the AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 directive to your Apache configuration file or ensuring that your Apache server is using a version that supports UTF-8 URLs.
2. Check the Django configuration: Make sure that your Django project is configured to handle UTF-8 URLs properly. You may need to set the DEFAULT_CHARSET and DEFAULT_CONTENT_TYPE settings to "utf-8" in your settings.py file.
3. Check the encoding of your source code files: Make sure that your source code files are saved using UTF-8 encoding. This includes both your Django project files and any template files you're using.
4. Check for any special characters or escape sequences in your URLs: If your URLs contain special characters or escape sequences, they may not be handled properly by your web server or Django project. Try to simplify your URLs by removing any special characters or escape sequences.

If none of these solutions work, you may need to consult the documentation for your web server or Django project, or seek help from a professional developer.
