I have a page which I load both on a local Tomcat 7 instance

I have a page which I load both on a local Tomcat 7 instance and a remote JBoss instance (OpenShift). The css is applied on JBoss, but not on Tomcat 7:

Html page head:

<head>
    <title><decorator:title /></title>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"/>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/static/css/reset.css" media="screen" />   
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/static/css/960gs-16col.css" media="screen" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/static/css/default.css" media="screen" />
</head>

Default.css

body {
  background-color: #c73b0b;
}

rest.css and default.css are not applied on Tomcat 7. I checked with FireBug, no bugs reported. I checked the page source code on both systems, exactly the same.

What could cause this issue?

    As we resolved together with @JVerstry:

    Seems that Tomcat wasn’t loading the CSS files the same way as JBoss.

    /static/css/reset.css is an absolute path. If reset.css is part of the application, it should be referenced as static/css/reset.css (without the leading slash)
