Strange error message in logs

Files are not found - but no links to files in these locations exist anyway

I find the following entries in my error log over and over again:

[Fri Jan 14 22:07:45 2005] [error] [client 000.0.000.000] File does not exist: /home/www/example/example.com/widget/scripts/widgets.css

The weird thing is not that the files don't exist, but that they exist on a different level: /home/www/example/example.com/navi/vor_mo.gif
However, I checked the source of my pages and not a single one contains example.com/widget/navi/vor_mo.gif (otherwise it would just be a simple html code mistake)

Any ideas?

Just looking at the calls i could be an incorrect relative link.

Do any of your pages in the "widget" directory have a link to "navi/vor_n.gif" when it shold be "../navi/vor_n.gif"?

[Pixelman]

No, that is the strange thing. In the normal directory (example.com/) there are pages with a link to /navi/next_n.gif, but not in the directory /example.com/widget/

I manually checked all the pages in the widget directory to find out if by mistake I left a link in the template, but no - no page in that directory needs the next_n.gif (and others mentioned) or has an incorrect linkt to that directory.

Are the references in a .JS include?
Maybe its a caching problem. Other option is that someone tries to rip your site with a bad written script.
