1. "Configure CORS support on your SAP HANA system" per https://help.sap.com/doc/00f68c2e08b941f081002fd3691d86a7/release/en-US/58c890e1c89d41e69b2cec31bac2d95f.html.
2. Create a working "Live Data Connection to SAP HANA using a Direct Connection".
3. Some time later notice the error.
4. Check sap/bc/ina/service/v2/.xsaccess and notice that the CORS configuration is unchanged.

• The CORS configuration in the Runtime Configuration Details in the XS Admin Tool has been edited.
• Per SAP HANA help "Runtime configuration settings override any settings in the application's corresponding application-access (.xsaccess) configuration file."

1. Open the XS Admin Tool at http://<HANAHOST>:<HANAPORT>/sap/hana/xs/admin
2. Search for ina.
3. Click sap.bc.ina.service.v2
4. Click CORS tab.
5. Click the Revert Runtime Settings icon in the bottom right corner.
6. Check CORS.
7. Click Save.
8. Now the Runtime configuration settings will match the .xsaccess configuration file.
