So I set up an ejabberd XMPP server and use nginx as a proxy on an EC2 instance. The Strophe.js echobot example can connect from my Chrome browser. Here are the Request Headers:

I ported the echobot example to work in Spotify as an app. However, Strophe cannot connect. Here is the Web Inspector network log:
Request URL:http://foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/http-bind
Request Headers
POST http://foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/http-bind HTTP/1.1
Origin: sp://chatify
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/535.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/17.0.963.15 Safari/535.11
Content-Type: application/xml
Request Payload
<body rid='790399813' xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/httpbind' to='ec2-54-246-45-111.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com' xml:lang='en' wait='60' hold='1' content='text/xml; charset=utf-8' ver='1.6' xmpp:version='1.0' xmlns:xmpp='urn:xmpp:xbosh'/>
Now. The RequiredPermissons in the manifest.json look as follows:
"RequiredPermissons": [
"http://foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
"foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
"http://foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/http-bind",
"foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/http-bind"
]
I can load sources from foo.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com so I think the permissons work.
The Spotify app uses a different origin, "sp://chatify". I read that this can cause problems. And Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*
should be added to the header. I did so in the nginx config just to find out that it had been sent all along. You can see it in Response Headers of the first request.
Strophe.js itself says in the logs of the example if turned on:
error 0 happened
So any suggestions?
The manifest seems to be right
Access-Control-Allow-Origin;* seem right
It works in a browser but not Spotify.
Thx for your help!
Update:
If I open the echobot.html locally it still works. The Origin is then null
.
