Not loading images after deployment on local server

Question

I have a multi component application in one root module in Agular 9.

The problem is when I deploy it via ng build --prod and copy it from the dist-folder to my local apache XAMPP server everything works except for the images.

The error message is:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) I have tried changing the path of the images and it didn`t work.

What am I doing wrong?

In the index.html I set <base href="/travelAgency/">

And this is my angular.json where I added "baseHref" : "/travelAgency/", "deployUrl": "/travelAgency/"

Maybe add what the url of the image look like in prod mod (i.e. the url giving 404) and your apache config — David
Thanks for the suggestion!!! When i inspect the deployed element it in the browser it is url(/assets/hero-image.jpg) just like I have in my source code. Then in the chrome inspector i deleted the first / he found the image immediately. Problem is when I delete this first slash in prod mode he gives me an error. Can`t resolve url("assets/hero-image.jpg"). — Fabian Andiel

i faced that before, change the url of your assets, if you are using

src="./assets/images/image.png"

change it to

src="assets/images/logo.png"

and it should work
