@manteguinha please provide a test value for LINK_PIC_HERE that results in this error

[manteguinha]

@manteguinha please provide a test value for LINK_PIC_HERE that results in this error

with any image or file link the error occurs, but in the tests I did I used getProfilePicFromServer to get the profile picture link, in the browser the picture opens perfectly, but to download the error appears.

I'm facing the same issue. Even with local files this doesnt work.

client.sendFile( requester.chatId, './media/img/Kaguya.png', 'image.png', caption );

Got me Error: Evaluation failed: Error: MediaFileEmpty

I tested it on an Intel processor with Chrome and it worked, so apparently the problem is because of the arm processor or the chromium.

Hey guys, I solve this problem using Docker with Docker Compose.

I had problems with native compose install in arm, so I used those commands to make the install. Works for me.
