asp.net mvc - Why font-awesome works on localhost but not on web ?

Question

I'm using font awesome in my project(mvc/asp.net). My problem is, I was debugging the project and check on localhost, there was no problem with font awesome icons. But when published the website and check on web, instead of icons, i saw small boxes. I'm sure that it's placed in right directory(where css files placed).

I couldn't find any proper solution.

By the way there is also no problem with buttons. They are all ok but icons are gone.

Thanks

I've just loaded your webpage and checked the net tab of firebug.

your following urls returned a 404:

http://www.senocakonline.com/Content/font/fontawesome-webfont.woff

http://www.senocakonline.com/Content/font/fontawesome-webfont.ttf

i would assume that those being missing is the reason your icons aren't displaying.

UPDATE: 23.10.2015 to make it available just add this code to your WebConfig:

<system.webServer>
    <staticContent>
      <mimeMap fileExtension="woff" mimeType="application/font-woff" />
      <mimeMap fileExtension="woff2" mimeType="application/font-woff" />
    </staticContent>
</system.webServer>
