I doubt that the 2 problems are directly related. I haven't managed an 
ISS (Windows) web server in years but I know apache can give a 404 "not 
found" error if the permissions on the file do not allow it to read the 
file. So do the usual stuff, check the file name, the permissions, etc.

There are a couple of skills that you might need to develop here. The 
first thing to know is that google is your friend. As you work to solve 
technical problems, the first thing you should almost always do is 
google it. That will almost always be the easiest and fastest way to 
solve a problem.  In fact, finding solutions via google is a valuable 
skill to have if you plan to work with computers for a living. Another 
skill you should try to develop is to learn how to ask a question more 
clearly. You need to provide a lot more detail than you have been 
providing. Not only does it help people to figure out what the problem 
is, it will make them much more inclined to help you because it will 
show that you have made an effort to solve the problem on your own.
