MetaTrader VPS - migrate MQL5\Images folder?

[Felipe Augusto Torres Maggico]

Hi,

I'm migrating all my terminals to MetaTrader VPS and the EA send me a current graphic window screenshot with a background image loaded from /Images folder.

Even using "Migrate all" option, EA can't load this image to populate the screenshot background. Is there any alternative to have this working?

Thank you.

MetaTrader VPS is MQL5 VPS from this link https://www.mql5.com/en/vps?
If yes so this MQL5 VPS is for autotrading by the EA(s) and/or for sugnal subscription.

Yes, this is the MQL5 VPS.

Should I try to load it using WebRequest()?

I do not know ... why do you need the images on this VPS?
This VPS does not have RDC and does not have any visualization (you will not see any image and any chart on VPS).
Because MQL5 VPS is the "Metatrader in cloud", and it is not related to your home Metatrader and the charts of your home Metatrader in anyway.

I do not find information about WebQuest but it is some which I found (from admins):

MQL5 VPS is for Metatrader 4 and Metatrader 5 - Forex VPS for MetaTrader 4/5 
So, you can check only the following: your EA (robot) is using dll, or not (because dll is not supported by MQL5 VPS).

Is 'Allow DLL import' and 'Allow modification of signal setting ' in MQL4 Indicators dangerous?

Sergey Golubev, 2017.09.09 06:05

Rules of Using the Virtual Hosting Service MetaTrader (Forex VPS)

No DLLs are allowed on a Virtual terminal. There is no physical capacity to use DLLs there.

If a program launched on a Virtual terminal tries to call a function from any DLL, this EX4/EX5 program is immediately stopped due to a critical error. Any DLL calls are forbidden.

First, read the online VPS help , there is also a video.

To transfer your own files to MetaTrader VPS, you need to specify the propert compiler in the code. It requires a certain level of ownership of the subject.

To transfer a file to a hosting server (as well as a tester agent), you need to use the directive

#property tester_file "<file_name>"
