[webmin-devel] redirect to some page

[Sylvia W. <Syl...@si...>]

Hi,

I am developing a custom webmin module and since a couple of days I am trying to get  a redirection to another page (CUPS on the same server as Webmin) to work.

When I am using the redirect-Function (&redirect("https://192.168.1.5:631")), the browser shows an error: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing.

As mentioned in this bug (https://github.com/webmin/webmin/issues/1026), I added Access-Control-Allow-Origin: "https://192.168.5.1:631" to Extra HTTP headers in the Webmin Configuration but the result is the same. I also installed the browser add-on mentioned in issue 1026 (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-and-headers-analyser/) which shows the value '"https' for access-control-allow-origin. (By the way I also tried with single and without quotation marks.) I don't know much about http headers, so I can't tell if Webmin or the add-on are cutting the value at the colon.

I did some further tests: If I use PrintHeader() instead of ui_print_header() the link works fine.

I am stuck now and don't know how to solve this problem.

Thanks a lot in advance for hints and help!
Sylvia
