<script type="text/javascript" src="~/../js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/js/index.js"></script>

Replace yours into this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/index.js"></script>
This gives me the same 404 error as my js folder is not in the same directory as the folder containing the html file
