How to handle .. Credential flag - these are "true" CORS errors

Question

I am running an ionic application on http: // localhost: 8100 that connects to my express server running on http: // localhost: 3000 .

As usual, I ran into the CORS problem. disabling websecurity in chrome did not help.

The error that occurs in chrome reports:

(index):1 XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://localhost:3000/auth/facebook. 
Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check:
Credentials flag is 'true', 
but the 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' header is ''. 
It must be 'true' to allow credentials. 
Origin 'http://localhost:8100' is therefore not allowed access.


Remote Address:[::1]:3000
Request URL:http://localhost:3000/auth/facebook
Request Method:OPTIONS
Status Code:200 OK

Response Headers

First question: I do not see Access-Controll-Allow-Credentials flags in request headers, then why chrome complains

Second question: I tried using the CORS express module, but that did not help. How to solve this problem?

, nodejs.

var app = express();
app.use(methodOverride());
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
  extended: true
}));

app.use(accessControl);

accessControl :

function(req, res, next) {

  var oneof = false;

  if (req.headers.origin) {
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', req.headers.origin);
    oneof = true;
  }
  if (req.headers['access-control-request-method']) {
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', req.headers['access-control-request-method']);
    oneof = true;
  }
  if (req.headers['access-control-request-headers']) {
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', req.headers['access-control-request-headers']);
    oneof = true;
  }
  if (oneof) {
    res.header('Access-Control-Max-Age', 60 * 60 * 24 * 365);
  }

  if (req.originalUrl === '/auth/signup') {
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
  }

  if (req.originalUrl === '/auth/login') {
    res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
  }

  // intercept OPTIONS method
  if (oneof && req.method === 'OPTIONS') {
    res.sendStatus(200);
  }

  else {
    next();
  }
};
