generator-jhipster: Images referred in HTML templates are not found

Overview of the issue

I generated a project using jH 4.0.3 version. I copied all my actual navbar content into navbar.html. The logo in navbar.html is referring to ../../../content/images/my_logo.png

All the images in default project are referred in css files and not from HTML files. I can’t figure how to get this working with images referred directly from HTML. When I start the application, the image is not found. Also, I checked in www folder under build. There is no generated hash file name for my_logo.png.

Motivation for or Use Case

Component HTML must be able to refer to images in .../content/images/... directly without involving CSS

Reproduce the error

Add a new image in /content/images folder and refer to that image directly using <img src>
