------------------------------------
Summary: Cordova does not work if current page is not local
Key: CB-1616
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1616
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CordovaJS, iOS
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Environment: iOS 5.x, 6.x
Reporter: Davide Maestroni
Assignee: Filip Maj
Priority: Blocker
I implemented an iOS application using Cordova 2.1.0, which, at startup, loads
a remote web page with the _cordova-2.1.0.js_ file included in a tag "script".
In this case the communication with the device fails and no Cordova plugin is
accessible.
After investigating the issue, I found out the root cause in the following line:
{noformat} execXhr.open('HEAD', "file:///!gap_exec", true);{noformat}
Basically, the problem here is that the above request never reaches the device
if the location of the window does not start with "file://", which is exactly
my case.
In order to fix that, I tried to modify the above line as follows:
{noformat} execXhr.open('HEAD', window.location.origin +
"/!gap_exec", true);{noformat}
And now it works great on any iOS device.
