Angular $http useCredentials return error

Question

I am trying to build an AngularJS frontend for a Drupal 7 website.

The problem is that, when I set useCredentails to true, I get this error.

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://example.com. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.

I have the following headers set on the backend:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, DELETE, PUT

Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-Requested-With, Accept, Content-Type, Cookie, X-CSRF-Token

Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true

The login works fine with useCredentails equals false. When changed to true, I get the above error.

I wanna be able to set useCredentails to true, in order to be able to use token authentication.

Any ideas?

P.S. I use drupal 7 services module with session autehntication.

The problem was in CORS configuration on the server.

Access-Control-Allow-Origin can not be set to * while Access-Control-Allow-Credentials is set to true.

I changed Access-Control-Allow-Origin to specific hosts, and everything worked fine.
