Good Morning, I'm looking for documentation about setting CORS headers in
apache.
The problem is that I need to handle a cors request and be sure I set all
the necessasary header in apache.
Right now I het error 401.
*Most of all, I can't find good server side documentation on how to handle
CORS request!*
May you please write a link if that documentation exists?
This
<https://benjaminhorn.io/code/setting-cors-cross-origin-resource-sharing-on-apache-with-correct-response-headers-allowing-everything-through/>
is the most complete topic I found but it sounds alchemic.
Ok, here we go with details:
*This is the ajax CORS request:*
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.withCredentials = true;
xhr.open("GET", "
https://cloud.domain.com/remote.php/webdav/path/to/my/file/file.7z ");
console.log('open x');
xhr.setRequestHeader("content-type", "application/txt");
xhr.setRequestHeader("authorization", "Basic 3j893njd83jneu32");
*The apache server configration related to cors is this:*
<VirtualHost *:443>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin 'https://examvple.callingdomain.com'
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "POST, GET, OPTIONS, DELETE, PUT"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials "true"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "x-requested-with, content-type,
origin, authorization, accept, client-security-token, basic, origin"
...
</VirtualHost>
(Notice I added 'basic, origin' but I don't know if they are valid heasers.
Nothing change if I remove them).
*After sending the request, in the browser console I get the error:*
Failed to load
https://cloud.domain.com/remote.php/webdav/path/to/my/file/file.7z:
Response for preflight has invalid HTTP status code 401.
*Here are more client side details:*
