I have an Ubuntu web server with NGINX. I want to add CORS support for the following WebDAV methods: PUT, GET, OPTIONS, MKCOL, PROPFIND. I read couple of articles how to add the CORS support and I have put the following lines in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:

server 
 listen 80 default_server;
 listen [::]:80 default_server;
# return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;


 root /var/www/html;

 # Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP
 index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

 server_name _;

 location / 
 # First attempt to serve request as file, then
 # as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
 try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
 

 location /test 
 add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" *;
 add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE, MKCOL, PROPFIND';
 add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials" "true";
 add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Headers" "Authorization, origin, accept";
 add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'DNT,X-CustomHeader,Keep-Alive,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Content-Range,Range';
 dav_methods PUT DELETE MKCOL;
 dav_ext_methods PROPFIND OPTIONS;
 autoindex on;
 create_full_put_path on;
 limit_except GET HEAD 
 allow XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/32;
 deny all;
 
 

But even after restart the nginx server the client is complaining that the CORS is not enabled. I got error messages that "No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'XXXX.com' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 404.". The interesting part is that I don't get such errors when the file is present, only if it is not there, but on the other hand I am testing the same on another server and on this server when the file is not present I got only HTTP status code 404.

And this is my nginx version and installed modules:

$ nginx -V

[EDIT]


This is the output of curl

$ curl --head http://ip_address/test:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu)
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2017 10:02:23 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Connection: keep-alive
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE, MKCOL, PROPFIND
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Authorization, origin, accept
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: DNT,X-CustomHeader,Keep-Alive,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Content-Range,Range

So it looks all good but I still got this errors in the developer console.
