D7 images not loading from css or from direct urls I have a site that I have developed off-line and now loaded onto the production server.  None of the images load on the server (despite being present in the appropriate directories).  This applies to images loaded by css (for example:  

.section-contact div#header {
background-image: url('/www.bernwodebenefice.com/images/contact_banner.png');}


It also applies to direct links from nodes.  For example:

&lt;img alt="" src="/www.bernwodebenefice.com/sites/default/files/StMaryDedication_1_20121202.jpg" style="width: 220px; height: 322px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;


(these samples are from the rendered code and are what I expected).

I do not have this problem with any of my other sites running on the same host.  For example:

div#header {background-image: url(/sites/all/themes/Endurance80/css/images/e80_2013.gif); height: 263px; }


This works perfectly.  And urls within the site work nicely using the same sort of link addresses.

I guess I have got some parameter somewhere not set right...  (I copied .htaccess and php.ini from a working site to the failing site in the hopes it was a rewrite problem... nope)

Any thoughts?

Have you tried

&lt;img src="/sites/default/files/StMaryDedication_1_20121202.jpg"&gt;

and

.section-contact div#header {
  background-image: url('../images/contact_banner.png');
}


where images is a folder in your theme dir e.g: images/contact_banner.png relative to css file in e.g: css/style.css.
