I have a huge problem with CORS on my server. My server runs on Tomcat on localhost. On the server I have implemented several RestFul resources. For instance:
@Path("user")
public class UserService {
@GET
@Path("/{username}/{password}")
@Produces("text/plain")
public String checkLoginParameter(@PathParam("username") String username, @PathParam("password") String password) {
String tempUserName = "";
String tempPassword = "";
String bool = "";
EntityManager em = createEntityManager();
try{
User user = (User)em.createQuery("SELECT u FROM User u WHERE u.username='"+username+"' AND u.password='"+password+"'").getSingleResult();
tempUserName = user.getUsername();
tempPassword = user.getPassword();
}
catch(Exception e){}
if(username.equals(tempUserName) && !username.isEmpty() && password.equals(tempPassword) && !password.isEmpty()){
bool = "true";
}
else{
bool = "false";
}
return bool;
}
}
Powered by Ressource. Now I want to access Ressource via JavaScript from another site. When I try to do this, I get an error message:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://localhost:8080/RSAppStore/user/poc/poc. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'null' is therefore not allowed access.
I know that I am adding permission for CORS to my server. I do it like this:
web.xml:
<filter>
<filter-name>CORS</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.thetransactioncompany.cors.CORSFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>cors.allowOrigin</param-name>
<param-value>*</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cors.supportedMethods</param-name>
<param-value>GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, DELETE</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cors.supportedHeaders</param-name>
<param-value>*</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cors.exposedHeaders</param-name>
<param-value>Set-Cookie</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cors.supportsCredentials</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CORS</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
JavaScript access:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
crossDomain: true,
url: "http://robosmart-appstore:robosmart@localhost:8080/RSAppStore/user/poc/poc",
contentType: "text/plain",
success: function( string ) {
console.log(string);
},
error:function () {
console.log("err");
}
});
});
</script>
In addition, I added these 2 jars.
cors-filter-1.9.2.jar
java-property-utils-1.9.jar
I read so many examples and explanations on the Internet, but nothing works, and I don’t know what I am doing wrong.
