I have a problem where Drupal tries to access the files in the "styles/stylename" directory, but they are not there since they aren't beeing generated. I allready tried changing the theme for a while (image style (imagecache) images are not being created) and also tried creating the style folder, changing permission and editing the .htacces file (https://www.drupal.org/forum/support/post-installation/2015-06-16/image-styles-not-generating#comment-11859066). I also tried a few other things, nothing seems to work.
Maybe usefull information: the images are created in a directory based on the month and year.
for example "sites/default/files/2019-07/filename.png"
edit: When accessing the url of the image style it returns:
