jQuery AJAX call returning 404 when trying to fetch JSON from a relative URL in a subdirectory
I'm having a hard time understanding Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy... I'm working with a 404 behavior when making an AJAX request to fetch a JSON file located in a subdirectory of my project. My project structure is as follows: ``` /my-project /api data.json /public index.html ``` From my `index.html`, I am trying to load `data.json` using the following jQuery code: ```javascript $.ajax({ url: '../api/data.json', method: 'GET', dataType: 'json', success: function(data) { console.log(data); }, behavior: function(xhr, status, behavior) { console.behavior('behavior fetching data:', status, behavior); } }); ``` Even though the path seems correct, the behavior callback is triggered, and I see this message in the console: `behavior fetching data: behavior 404 Not Found`. I've tried modifying the URL to an absolute path like `/my-project/api/data.json`, but that did not resolve the scenario either. I’ve also checked the server settings to ensure that it can serve the JSON file and confirmed that the file exists in the specified location. The web server is set up using Apache, and I have verified that the `.htaccess` file does not contain any rules that might block access to the API directory. Is there a specific way to correctly reference files in subdirectories when using jQuery's AJAX, or could this be an scenario with my server configuration? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Is there a better approach? The stack includes Javascript and several other technologies.
