ASP.NET doesn't see static files in Views/Home folder?

Question

ASP.NET

I am writing a project on ASP .NET MVC 4 In the View\Home folder there is an image bg.jpg but when you try to access it localhost:14066/Home/bg.jpg HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found occurs and naturally this code does not work:

<style> .body { background-image: url("bg.jpg"); } </style>

And I'm also trying to connect external css, but it also does not connect, although it is in the same folder with Index.cshtml How to be?

Answer 1

The file is physically located in the /Views/Home/bg.jpg folder , but most likely this will not work. The /Views folder is for view files, partial views, and templates only. Normal (expected) processing of files in this folder should be disabled by default. The /Content
folder is for static files . For script files, you can use the /Scripts folder .
