[OpenLayers-Users] CORB problem with TileArcGISRest layer in OpenLayers 5 client

Wed Sep 25 07:36:23 PDT 2019

Dear colleagues,

I’m running into difficulty using a tiled basemap layer with an
TileArcGISRest data source in an OpenLayers 5 client.

I’ve able to successfully use this layer in OpenLayers 2 clients, and
don’t’ understand the problem I’m running into and what needs to be done to
address it.

The layer in question is one of MassGIS’s (the Massachusetts State GIS
Agency’s) tiled basemaps. It is described here:
https://www.mass.gov/service-details/massgis-base-map

My sample OL 2 client, which works just fine, may be found here:
https://www.ctps.org/geoserver/www/apps/MassGIS_basemap_OL_v2/index.html

My sample OL 5 client, which runs into errors, may be found here:
https://www.ctps.org/geoserver/www/apps/MassGIS_basemap_OL_v5/index.html

The code for my OL 5 client is based on a sample on the OpenLayers website:
 https://openlayers.org/en/latest/examples/arcgis-tiled.html

When run in the Chrome browser, the OL 5 client gets cross-origin read
blocking (CORB) errors, reported in the developer’s console:

Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) blocked cross-origin response
https://tiles.arcgis.com/tiles/hGdibHYSPO59RG1h/arcgis/rest/services/MassGIS_Basemap_Detailed_Features/MapServer/export?F=image&FORMAT=PNG32&TRANSPARENT=true&SIZE=256%2C256&BBOX=-71.103515625%2C42.275390625%2C-71.015625%2C42.36328125&BBOXSR=4326&IMAGESR=4326&DPI=90
with MIME type text/html. See
https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5629709824032768 for more details.

The layer also fails to render when the sample client is run in Firefox,
IE, Edge, and Opera.

I checked the developer’s console in Firefox, and there no CORB errors are
reported. Looking at the responses to the requests for tiles in the
‘Network’ tab, I see the following:

<html>

<body>

<h2>Error</h2>

<div class=”restbody”>

<h3>Operation not supported.</h3><br/>

<b> Code: <b>404<br/><br/>

</div>

</body>

</html>

So, in spite of the lack of an error message in the console, it’s clear
that the server isn’t sending tiles back in response to requests.

Due to the big changes in the OpenLayers API between versions 2 and 3, my
first hypothesis is that I’ve not correctly “translated” my OL 2 code into
OL 3/4/5.

This having been said, it’s not clear to me what a “correct” translation
might look like – the sample on the OL site noted above is the only thing
I’ve been able to find to use as a model.

If anyone can shed light on what I might be doing wrong here, it would be
much appreciated.

Thanks and best regards,

Ben
