I wonder are you using the downloader and the server in the same code??  Or what is the setting your have?

//Called when application is started.
function OnStart()
{
//Check wifi is enabled.
var ip = app.GetIPAddress();
if( ip == "0.0.0.0" ) {
alert( "Please Enable Wi-Fi" );
app.Exit();
}

var srcFileUrl="http://192.168.173.228:8080/Download/KH%20121/Track%2003.mp3";

var targetDir="/sdcard";

dload = app.CreateDownloader();
  
  dload.SetOnComplete( dload_OnComplete );
   dload.Download( srcFileUrl, targetDir );

function dload_OnComplete()
{

var fil="/sdcard/KH 121/Track 03.mp3";

if(app.FileExists(fil))
app.ShowPopup(app.ReadFile(fil));
else app.ShowPopup("Download failed");

}

//Create a layout with objects vertically centered.
lay = app.CreateLayout( "linear", "VCenter,FillXY" );

//Create a text label and add it to layout.
var s = "Type the following address into your" +
" browser\n\n" + ip +":8080";
txt = app.CreateText( s, 0.8, 0.5, "MultiLine" );
txt.SetTextSize( 22 );
lay.AddChild( txt );

//Add layout to app.
app.AddLayout( lay );

//Create and run web server.
serv = app.CreateWebServer( 8080, "Upload,ListDir" );
serv.SetFolder( "/sdcard" );
serv.AddServlet( "/message", OnServlet );
serv.Start();
}

//Handle servlet requests.
function OnServlet( request, info )
{
serv.SetResponse( "Got it!" );
app.ShowPopup( info.remoteAddress + " says: " + request.msg );
}

It fail to download.

you are trying to download after the server is enabled, I would recommend to delay the execution with a timeout, that way you can start the server, wait 2-3 secs and then download.

Also make sure dload_OnComplete is a global function not declared inside the OnStart method.
