Recently, we upgraded our CMS to Sitecore XP 8.2 Initial Release, we started facing weird issue. The fonts where not loading on pages. When we started digging the issue, we found a pattern. The issue was not for all font files but only for those having GUID like names
E.g. 054c9659-429a-4553-b54e-7db2eedb542a.woff2
So, we tried to reproduce and debug the same in local and we came to know that while trying to get item by using GetItem(string path) method, it returns null.
Then we tried to replicate the same in clean sitecore installation. We created an Item under /sitecore/content/Home/ and named it 054c9659-429a-4553-b54e-7db2eedb542a
