[Geoserver-users] Regarding CORS support for REST API

GeoServer GeoServer User

Hi everyone,

I am making a geoserver manager as a part of my internship and I have run into a little road block.
I am using jQuery (3.3.1) to fire an AJAX POST request to create a workspace via the REST API.
However, I am facing a CORS issue in Firefox (58.0.2)
I tried using jsonp datatype in AJAX but that didn’t work.
I am running the latest Georserver (2.13 beta) and CORS support was one of the improvements over the last version.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

Vaibhav

Hi,
I believe you still need to configure CORS in Jetty, the ticket (to my limited knowledge) was
just about adding a library to our minimized Jetty installation that would make configuration
work.

Torben (cc’ed) should know more, but in the meantime, which flavor of GeoServer are you installing?
Windows installer? bin package? war file?

Cheers
Andrea

Hi Vaibhav,

Andrea is correct, the latest CORS support fix was just adding a library to the minimal jetty installation. You will still need to enable CORS. How you enable CORS will depend upon how you installed GeoServer. Basic instructions for the standalone version are here: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/container.html#enable-cors

If you are using a WAR install with a servlet container (such as tomcat), you will need to follow the instructions for that container. Basic tomcat CORS documentation is here: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/config/filter.html#CORS_Filter
