Problems with linking to images css or javascript are often the result of problems with the rewriting of urls. That is why I wanted you to check the .htaccess files were there.
Also the fact that you had "app" as a component of your path is odd and might have thrown Cake a bit. But I now noticed a tiny detail in your original post. You wrote that you got a path like ".\" (dot backslash). That does not look right either. Paths always use forward slashes and, in my installations, they are all output as absolute paths (starting from the website root). The strange part is that all the things that I know of that can cause this kind of problem would also show themselves for your css and javascript.
