Hi Mariano,

(I can't access the file you gave as an example, probably an extra #username:password: is needed)

You are making it more difficult than it has to be: this gives you the bytes you want

ZnClient new
� � � � get: 'http://zn.stfx.eu/zn/string.fuel'.

With some better system parameters this becomes

ZnClient new
� � � � systemPolicy;
� � � � beOneShot;
� � � � accept: ZnMimeType applicationOctetStream;
� � � � url: 'http://zn.stfx.eu/zn/string.fuel';
� � � � get.

But what you really want is something like:

ZnClient new
� � � � systemPolicy;
� � � � beOneShot;
� � � � accept: ZnMimeType applicationOctetStream;
� � � � url: 'http://zn.stfx.eu/zn/string.fuel';
� � � � contentReader: [ :entity | FLMaterializer materializeFromByteArray: entity contents ];
� � � � get.

You can experiment with #streaming: true but that is only worth it for large (MB) files. IMHO.

HTH,

Sven
