I applied an alternate css to my master page for the background image and it is only seen by people with full control access of the site. Others, like contribute, read-only, etc do not see the background image. I pressed F12 for the dev tools and see my alternate css overriding the default, but "Failed to load the given URL" message is displayed for all users with less than full control permissions.
I have tried :
IIS reset, I even rebooted both front end servers, my specified css is checked in, added my css to a different library and then specified the new location in master pages' alternate css, I can access my css directly from the any user's account.
Thanks in advance
