Re: CORS Issue

I've had this issue when I run a web page accessing files on the i series from my PC but when I put the web page on the i series it runs just fine. It happens when I am developing a web page with Eclipse.

To resolve the issue I installed Firefox's extension on my PC.


Allow CORS: Access-Control-Allow-Origin

Easily add (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) rule to the response header.
Allow CORS: Access-Control-Allow-Origin lets you easily perform cross-domain Ajax requests in web applications.

Subject: [WEB400] CORS Issue

When trying to access a web service from a web page I am getting the following error:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://192.168.0.15:10000/web/services/coloryield/032. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing).

I have added the recommended "fix" to the config file but still receive the error:

Header Always Set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"

A couple of Google searches suggest that I also need the following:

LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so

However, this errors when starting the server. I am running IBM HTTP Server for i, and perhaps this command is for the Apache version? Can anyone point me towards a solution to this?

Thanks again for all the help,

Kelley
