No Access-Control-Allow-Origin header is present on the requested resource

Question

I want to access information from same domain but with different port number, To allow this I am adding Access-Control-Allow-Origin with the response header.

Answer 1

Solution:
Instead of using setHeader method I have used addHeader.

response.addHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");

* in above line will allow access to all domains, For allowing access to specific domain only:

response.addHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "http://www.example.com");

For issues related to IE<=9, Please see here.

Answer 2

I find the solution in spring.io,like this:

    response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
    response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "POST, GET, OPTIONS, DELETE");
    response.setHeader("Access-Control-Max-Age", "3600");
    response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "x-requested-with");

Answer 3

You are missing 'json' dataType in the $.post() method:

$.post('http://www.example.com:PORT_NUMBER/MYSERVLET',{MyParam: 'value'})
        .done(function(data){
                  alert(data);
         }, "json");
         //-^^^^^^-------here

Updates:

try with this:

response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", request.getHeader("Origin"));

On your servlet simply override the service method of your servlet so that you can add headers for all your http methods (POST, GET, DELETE, PUT, etc...).

@Override
    protected void service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException {

        if(("http://www.example.com").equals(req.getHeader("origin"))){
            res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", req.getHeader("origin"));
            res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Authorization");
        }

        super.service(req, res);
    }
