NodeBB could not reach the package manager

[thewheat]

I'm getting this in the console.log

XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://packages.nodebb.org/api/v1/suggest?package=nodebb-plugin-emailer-ssl-smtp&version=0.7.0. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://........com' is therefore not allowed access.

Most likely related to the removal of https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-package-manager/commit/bb079befc7af0d74fa12a11b855a4bb9057bffae#diff-2b137e40025e00eb45b66941ad8d4ddfL148

@xbenjii that should have no effect on the package suggestions system... navigating to the url provided seems to work fine as well...

But they're accessing it cross-domain aren't they? Is this not a CORS issue?

Assuming this is the code issuing the error.

In https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-package-manager/commit/bb079befc7af0d74fa12a11b855a4bb9057bffae you removed all the middleware, including the CORS header.

Thanks @xbenjii, looks like you're right.

As of today, using NodeBB v0.7.2, the bug is still present, and the circumstances seem to match the ones described by other users here.

Can confirm this is the case for my self also, Unable to update persona theme.

Now it appears to be solved
