triggerClientEvent not working[GNU/Linux]

[Mittell Buurman]

The issue is as followed:

I have a serverside event calling a clientside event, but it doesnt trigger at all. I have tried several attempts, but I get nothing. Not even a debugmessage both on the console, nor the debugscript.

Client

  
addEventHandler("account:login:attempt", getRootElement(), 
    function() 
        outputChatBox("Hello") 
        fadeCamera(true) 
        setCameraTarget(client, client) 
        setCameraMatrix(0, 0, 5, 100, 100, 10) 
    end 
); 
  

Server

  
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), 
    function() 
--    I tried to remove the source on the first argument aswell, no results whatsoever, I tried getRootElement(), same results 
        triggerClientEvent(source, "account:login:attempt", source) 
    end 
); 
  

Global(client & server)

  
addEvent("account:login:attempt", true)

I guess the client side script haven't started yet when you have send the trigger.

And client can be used server side only.

You don't need for the trigger, just use the event onClientResourceStart in client side.

The eventhandlers does not support tokens like ( " ' , ). Change the name; account:login:attempt to this;

account_login_attempt

account_login_attempt 

I tested it and it does support : tags.

I use the trigger for a purpose, I discovered that the addEvent does work in the script itself, but for some reason it doesnt work when I put it in the global file.
