Question
Files on the server loads only when it is accessed through www

Asked by Chempo
So I have image on the server located in the images folder.
It serves as a Thumbnail when my site is shared on social media.
But, it can only be viewed when you go to my site with www:
http://www.chempo.com/images/thumbnail.png
and if you remove www it shows 404:
http://chempo.com/images/thumbnail.png
Does anybody know what is the problem? What do I need to do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
P.S.
My droplet is on Ubuntu 14.04

Open a console terminal and type:
I don’t know how you setup your website via configuration but open the correct file that’s associated with chempo.com.
In there, there will be a line that probably says:
Underneath it, add this:
Save and restart apache2
Hopefully, that should allow web requests with and without www.
