For those interested I finally solved this problem by modifying the .htaccess file on the server by adding the following:
<code>
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers X-Requested-With
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true
Header set Access-Control-Max-Age 86400
</IfModule>
</code>
The above code allowed me to use C2 to access the files contained on the server.
