I am try to convert my electron app to full web. when I am running the app from my localhost I get this error:
Failed to load https://agrt.herokuapp.com/login: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: The value of the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header in the response must not be the wildcard '*' when the request's credentials mode is 'include'. Origin 'http://localhost:4200' is therefore not allowed access. The credentials mode of requests initiated by the XMLHttpRequest is controlled by the withCredentials attribute.
on my client I sent a http request with:
this.http.post(Consts.REMOTE_URL + '/login', {
username: username,
password: password
}, {withCredentials:true}).
on my server I use cors ant I set:
app.use(function(req,res,next){
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin","http://localhost:4200");
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'X-Requested-With,content-type, Accept');
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE');
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
next();
})
my server is on heroku.
when I am running from the electron everything going well.
please, any help will be great!
