title: Spring boot can not recognize path of my image
body: <p>I have a spring boot program, and in the data loader class that implements commandLiner, I saved a picture of roastedChicken, which it's path that I entered is \static\images\roastedChicken.jpg, and you can see it in detail in the image below. But the program gives an error and says that it does not recognize this path, why?
