Your HTTP server doesn't have permission to serve that
pathname. In HTML output, the fileref attribute is copied
straight through to the img href attribute.
The image file itself is not accessed during processing.
So the pathname used in fileref should one that is
accessible from your HTTP server. If it is an absolute
path, it must be relative to your HTTP server's document
root. If it is a relative path, it must be relative to
the generated HTML files.
For example, you could use:
<graphic fileref="images/SOStructure"
and then copy the images/* directory to the location
of your HTML output files.
