I have an odd issue with CSS dir in localhost WAMP (Apache)

I’ve been pulling my hair out over this one.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/icons/style.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/custom.css">

the custom.css ref works fine, the one in the icons dir just returns a "The requested URL was not found on this server.", it will work however if:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/icons/style.css">

… I drop the icons dir into the CSS dir! So, my local WAMP server install is set to only read CSS files from a dir named CSS?

It’s one of those things that seems so random and is sucking so much time and energy from me.

Cheers.

    Answer is, Apache reserves or configs any folder named 'icons' in some special way... https://electrictoolbox.com/apache-icons-directory/

    this is mean the dir is incorrect so you need to type the correct one
    if the file path points to a file in the icons folder located in the folder one level up from the current folder, then your code should be like this
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="../icons/style.css">

    if this solution not working for you try one of those
