I can't seem to get the webserver up #4

Hi, I can't seem to get the webserver up and I do not see what I could be doing wrong. Connection to wifi seems ok as I can ping the assigned ipadress but I'm getting "file not found." The led matrix itself is working. Tried another project with a webserver and that worked fine.

I finally figured it out. I installed python (not sure if it was necessary) I installed a recent version of the FS tool (esp8266fs) I had to increase the flash memory in the arduino IDE (Flash mode to 128 kb) You need it to transfer the subdirectory data to the esp board. And Finally it worked. And it was worth the effort.
