Anyone know how to allow REST from a Browser-based App that sends CORS Options?

  • 1.  Anyone know how to allow REST from a Browser-based App that sends CORS Options?

    Posted Jun 26, 2014 11:15 AM

    I am trying to write a browser-based app and making a REST call to PAM using JQuery. It seems my request begins first with a pre-flight Options packet before the HTTP Post. This is rejected by PAM with a 401, unauthorized. Is there a way to make this work?

     

    CORS: HTTP access control (CORS) - HTTP | MDN

     

    First packet sent from browser:

     

    OPTIONS /node/rest/CA:00074_CA:00074:01/_ops/Start HTTP/1.1

    Host: 10.56.127.54:7000

    Connection: keep-alive

    Access-Control-Request-Method: POST

    Origin: file://

    User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36

    Access-Control-Request-Headers: accept, authorization, content-type

    Accept: */*

    Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch

    Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8

     

    Reply from PAM:

     

    HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized

    Accept: */*

    Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch

    Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8

    Access-Control-Request-Headers: accept, authorization, content-type

    Access-Control-Request-Method: POST

    Content-Length: 0

    Content-Type: null

    Host: 10.56.127.54:7000

    Origin: file://

    User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36

    WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm= Catalyst Realm

    Server: Jetty(8.1.10.v20130312)

     

    Any help or ideas welcome.
