Ajax CORS Request with http 401 in preflight

问题

I am struggling for hours now. I want to make a simple ajax request to another domain, but get http 401 Error all the time:

jQuery(document).ready(function($){
  var challengeid = $('#codepressHook').data('challengeid');
  var clicked = false;
  $('#codepressHook').click(function(){
    if(!clicked){
      $.ajax({
        url: "https://dev.radbonus.com/admin/affiliate-connections/retrieveSingle/"+challengeid+".json",
        method: "GET",
        dataType: "json",
        jsonp: false,
        contentType: "application/json",
        xhrFields: {
          withCredentials: true
        },
        beforeSend: function(xhr){
          xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic "+ btoa(username+":"+password));
        },
        success: function(data){
          $('#codepressHock').html(data.data.code);
        },
        error: function(error){
          alert(error);
        }
      });
    }
  });
});

I set all relevant CORS headers on the serverside. Here is the network traffic:

I know that there are a lot of posts on this topic, but it seems I'm missing something simple. Could anyone help me?

回答1:

UPDATE Looks like I was not right. Authorization header is never sent for OPTIONS request. Please see comment by sideshowbarker - you need to make sure that your server doesn't respond with 401 to OPTIONS request.

I don't know what language is your server written in, but you implemented authorization in the wrong way - OPTIONS method should be excluded from auth. Also see here - OPTIONS request authentication

Below is obsolete answer:

Your serverside requires HTTP Basic authentication for this request. And you don't provide credentials. 401 error has nothing to do with CORS; it just means that the server chose to not authorize your request because you didn't provide auth credentials.

If you try to open this url (like https://dev.radbonus.com/admin/affiliate-connections/retrieveSingle/1.json) directly in browser, you will be asked to enter login&password, which is how the browser handles 401 error with WWW-Authenticate header.

Please notice that Authorization header is actually not included with your request. So instead of using beforeSend hook, you should probably just include header directly in your call:

headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Basic ' + btoa(username+':'+password),
},

And make sure that Authorization header presents in your request.

Please add cross domain in headers like this:

$.ajax({
        url: "https://dev.radbonus.com/admin/affiliate-connections/retrieveSingle/"+challengeid+".json",
        method: "GET",
        dataType: "json",
        jsonp: false,
        contentType: "application/json",
        xhrFields: {
          withCredentials: true
        },
        crossDomain: true,
        beforeSend: function(xhr){
          xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic "+ btoa(username+":"+password));
 xhr.setRequestHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin",'*');
        },
        success: function(data){
          $('#codepressHock').html(data.data.code);
        },
        error: function(error){
          alert(error);
        }
      });
