Failed to construct 'URL': Invalid URL

Hello All,
I have the ipsf daemon running in the background, successfully. However, when I try to run the example, upload-file-via-browswer, in js-ipfs-http-client repo, I get the following error on my chrome browser:

Uncaught TypeError: Failed to construct 'URL': Invalid URL
at getNonRootPath (configure.js:93)
at eval (configure.js:27)
at ipfsClient (index.js:21)
at new App (App.js:47)
at constructClassInstance (react-dom.development.js:12484)
at updateClassComponent (react-dom.development.js:14255)
at beginWork (react-dom.development.js:15082)
at performUnitOfWork (react-dom.development.js:17820)
at workLoop (react-dom.development.js:17860)
at HTMLUnknownElement.callCallback (react-dom.development.js:149)
It seems that “localhost” is being passed into const apiAddrPath = getNonRootPath(…) in configure.js.
Please let me know if there is a workaround for this error. If I am doing something wrong configuration wise, do provide some guidance.

Cheers,

@pcowgill when I run the upload-file-via-brower, I get the following error:

Access to fetch at 'http://127.0.0.1:5001/api/v0/add?stream-channels=true&progress=true' from origin 'http://localhost:1234' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.

I have the following in my config:

"HTTPHeaders": {
      "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": [
        "Authorization"
      ],
      "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": [
        "PUT",
        "POST",
        "GET"
      ],
      "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": [
        "*"
      ]
    }

This example has been fixed in #1222
