Answer 1

Add below line to config/environments/development.rb file

config.action_cable.allowed_request_origins = [/http:\/\/*/, /https:\/\/*/]

Hope this will help you.

Even better, only whitelist the domains that you really want to allow. For example: config.action_cable.allowed_request_origins = [/http:\/\/www\.mydomain\.com/, /https:\/\/www\.mydomain\.com/] – Subcommittee
