So I use HAproxy to access LXD containers. I installed the lua.cors directives into the haproxy.cfg but I am still getting the COR request blocked?

mydomain .us is ficticious as I don’t want traffic on my site right now.

website is an LXD container, accessed with http or https://www.mydomain.us. The acl for website works fine with or without the cors.lua.

The problem is broadcast is an LXD container running Ubuntu 18.04 and a nodejs app running on port 9001 and accessed with https://bcast.mydomain.us I can get to the webpage, but it is producing the Cross-Origin Request Blocked and I cannot proceed from the page. Here is the error:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://localhost:9001/socket.io/?userid=1o1hbuzwazgacognu4f…imitPerUser=1&extra=%7B%7D&EIO=3&transport=polling&t=N8yWFI-. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed)

I inserted cors.lua. but it seems the error is beyond haproxy?

I tried the “*” in the http-response but it did not help.

Here is my haproxy.cfg:

I appreciate any comments or suggestions for fixing this. I will be glad to provide any additional information you may need.
