CORS error in PHP server, even though 'header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *')' is present

Question

I got a simple PHP server running on my local. I send requests from frontend to the PHP server. But I get CORS error even though 'header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *')' is present on the PHP file.

Frontend runs on 8080 port and PHP server runs on 3000 port.

Here is the error I get

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'http://localhost:3000/' from origin 'http://localhost:8080' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

And these lines are at the top of the PHP file

header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *'); 
header("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true");
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS');
header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 1000');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin, Content-Type, X-Auth-Token , Authorization');

Any idea why?

i smell a port bug here, but what do you get from curl? ```curl -v 'http://localhost:3000/'``` — hanshenrik, Jan 15 '23 at 18:21
