appendix: we are referencing the images using http://.../. the URL resolution 
is quite simple (no ".." or other issues that i read in the issue tracker) and 
the URLs work in xhtml and the page rendered correctly in windows. in linux the 
images not present, though everything else is the same (same JAR, same 
html/URLs, etc).

this issue can be ignored. it turned out to be a problem with the routing via 
iptables for the requests from port 80 to 8080 on the localhost
