Re: EZProxy Config Help

Hi Kun Lin,

Each vendor can be slightly different with how they do their AJAX, however a good first step would be to allow some request headers to be processed.

The common one is:
HTTPHeader -request -process X-Requested-With

Kind regards,
Ben

Subject: [EZPROXY-L] EZProxy Config Help


    We have a subscription to journal “Middle East report”.  I have trouble configure it via EZProxy. There is no published config. I simply use URL, HJ, DJ for its domain “merip.org<http://merip.org>”. While we could get to the website, we aren’t getting the link for PDF download. So, I check the browser developer console and found out that there is an AJAX request getting blocked because “cross-origin”.   I added 'HTTPHeader -response -edit Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" ' to config. It did not help. I am still getting cross site. And it seems like EZProxy did not recognize that they need to rewrite the POST AJAX request to merip.org<http://merip.org> with our EZProxy prefix. I locate the code in HTML source to an inline Javascript



    <script type='text/javascript'>

    /* <![CDATA[ */

    var paupressAjax =   {"ajaxurl":"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php","ajaxhome":"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/","ajaxadmin":"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-admin\/","paupress_nonce":"e70bd7e475","ajaxload":"<div class=\"pp-loader-outer\"><div class=\"pp-loader-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-content\/plugins\/presspoint\/assets\/g\/pp-loader.gif\"   \/><\/div><\/div>","ajaxloadinline":"<div class=\"pp-loader-modal\"><div  class=\"pp-loader-modal-image\"><img  src=\"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-content\/plugins\/presspoint\/assets\/g\/loading.gif\"    \/><\/div><\/div>","ajaxLoadInline":"<div class=\"pp-loader-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-content\/plugins\/presspoint\/assets\/g\/pp-loader.gif\"><\/div>","ajaxLoadImage":"<img

    src=\"https:\/\/merip.org<http://merip.org>\/wp-content\/plugins\/presspoint\/assets\/g\/pp-loader.gif\">","download":"Download","close":"Close","oneMoment":"One Moment Please...","closeThis":"Close","confirmAction":"Are you certain you wish to make this change?","errMsg":"We found some errors -- please attend to the fields below marked with <span

    class=\"halt-example\">\u00a0<\/span>","couponErr":"<div class=\"pp-error\">Duplicate. Please note new value.<\/div>","yearLow":"50","yearHigh":"5"};    /* ]]> */

    </script>



    So, I am trying to use "Find" and "Replace" directive in EZProxy to force a rewrite of ajaxURL. It doesn't seem to work to simply do  Find "merip.org<http://merip.org>" Replace "merip-org.ezproxy.{our domain}.edu".  Anyone has ideas on how I could force rewriting this AJAX URL?



    Thanks a lot
