I have followed the manual and package install on switch2osm.org as well as several others that are all similar.

I have loaded everything into the DB successfully. I used mapnik generate_xml & generate_image.py successfully producing the image.png map.

I ran renderd -f -c /etc/renderd.conf

which ended without errors with the return renderd[27896]: Using web mercator projection settings

I have tried navigating to /var/www/osm/0/0/0.png but it is 404, as well as osm_tiles and osm_tiles2 as I have seen in other install guides.

So, what part of the install actually configs the file path? Are there any other tests I can do to verify my installation?

Renderd only renders tiles, to serve them you need mod_tile, an Apache module. It is probably already installed, but you would need to enable mod_tile manually: see this page for instructions (search by "Configure mod_tile").

Renderd and mod_tile do not produce actual image files in your directory tree, so to see /0/0/0.png, you'll have to open http://localhost/<tile_URI>/0/0/0.png, where <tile_URI> is defined in /usr/local/etc/renderd.conf.
