Nodejs express static folder doesn't works for some files

Question

Hello guys I have a project written in NodeJs, express and AngularJS. the problem I'm facing that my page doesn't find some js and css files in the public static folder and gives 404 error. however, it works for the second half of the files! it's wired it know! that why I'm asking after investigating for long time.

I face this bug only with the online server. ( it work perfectly for all links in my own computer)

the website is: http://alfa-srv.geo2.pl/ then login: admin@geo2.pl password: a

then check the source code of the page you gonna find out that some files works and others doesn't for example: /css/style.css ====>> working /css/isteven-multi-select.css >> NOT working!

Also it looks like the server redirecting to /home page in case of those none found files! to understand what I mean try to open manually http://alfa-srv.geo2.pl/css/isteven-multi-select.css

ls of css folder:

ls -na public/css/
total 1020

Any suggestion?

Check the files permissions. maybe node does not have the rights to serve these files
