This does appear to be relevant. Unfortunately IIS uses 404 when it
doesn't know what to do with a particular filetype (it determines the
filetype by its extension). That is server-related rather than "Not
found", and a 500-series status would probably have been a better
choice as it does mean that it's more involved than it need be to
ascertain the cause. If the file is clearly in the right place with
the right name (demonstrated via FTP; IIS is not case-sensitive) then
Sherlock Holmes can be useful: "When you have eliminated all which is
impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the
truth."
