    server App5 192.168.1.205:80 check

Anyone get the solution with backend and authentication as true?

using the above configuration we getting the below error

Access-Control-Allow-Origin contains muliple headers. but only one is allowed

we using this configuration in haproxy

    # Add CORS headers when Origin header is present
    capture request header origin len 128
    http-response add-header Access-Control-Allow-Origin %[capture.req.hdr(0)] if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    rspadd Access-Control-Allow-Methods:\ GET,\ HEAD,\ OPTIONS,\ POST,\ PUT  if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    rspadd Access-Control-Allow-Credentials:\ true  if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    rspadd Access-Control-Allow-Headers:\ Origin,\ Accept,\ X-Requested-With,\ Content-Type,\ Access-Control-Request-Method,\ Access-Control-Request-Headers,\ Authorization  if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }

Need this type of configuration for HAProxy version 2.4.12-4b7772e 2022/01/11.

As above configuration is working for me on HaProxy Version 1.5,1.8.

BUt after upgrading Haproxy to 2.4 its not working.

@akshatkalkhanda , might be a little late, but:

    capture request header origin len 128
    http-response set-header Access-Control-Allow-Origin %[capture.req.hdr(0)] if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    http-response set-header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Origin, Accept, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers, Authorization" if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    http-response set-header Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, POST, PUT" if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }
    http-response set-header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true if { capture.req.hdr(0) -m found }

    http-response set-header Strict-Transport-Security max-age=15768000 if { ssl_fc }
    http-response set-header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN"
    http-response set-header X-Xss-Protection "1; mode=block"
    http-response set-header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff"
