fetchRemote in client-side

[Vector]

Hi, I try to use fetchRemote in client-side but it doesnt work. in fact, it works when using fetchRemote in server-side

I used to think that this error is because of client or server version are below the minimum required version.

But I put this on the meta file, and stil the same error.

     client="1.3.2" server="1.3.0-9.03739"/>  

this works ->

--server-side

  
  fetchRemote("http://localhost/image.png",  
         function(data, errno)  
               if errno == 0 then outputChatBox("error downloading  image: " .. errno); return; end;  
               triggerClientEvent(root, "onFileDownload", root, "image.png", data); 
         end);   
  

-- client-side

  
      addEvent("onFileDownload", true);  
      addEventHandler("onFileDownload", root, 
              function(fileName, data)  
                    -- cache the data to a file .. 
                    local file;  
                    if not fileExists(fileName) then file = fileCreate(fileName);  
                    else file = fileOpen(fileName); end;  
                    fileWrite(file, data);  
                    fileClose(file);                    
  
                    -- do whatever with the file ...  
              end);  
  

this not work-> (value returned by fetchRemote -> error 1006)

--client-side

  
  fetchRemote("http://localhost/image.png",  
         function(data, errno)  
               if errno == 0 then outputChatBox("error downloading  image: " .. errno); return; end;  
               triggerEvent("onFileDownload", root, "image.png", data);  
         end);   
      addEvent("onFileDownload", false);  
      addEventHandler("onFileDownload", root, 
              function(fileName, data)  
                    -- cache the data to a file .. 
                    local file;  
                    if not fileExists(fileName) then file = fileCreate(fileName);  
                    else file = fileOpen(fileName); end;  
                    fileWrite(file, data);  
                    fileClose(file);                    
  
                    -- do whatever with the file ...  
              end);

From the wiki: Note: Client side function only works with the server the player is connected to

Use server IP or hostname of the server wich the client is connected to on client-side. Eg.:

fetchRemote("http://1.2.3.4/image.png",

I tried to use server-ip like this "http://x.x.x.x/image.png" and doesn´t work.

and with a hostname like myserver.no-ip.org "http://myserver.no-ip.org/image" doesnt´work.

As csiguusz said, fetchRemote on the client side will only work to connect to the server. You cannot connect to servers that aren't hosted on the servers computer

the server i try to connect to is the same server the client is connected to in MTA.

Well, for what it seems is that the IP you entered is not allowed.
