Node.js sends empty font files

I try to mirror my public CDN server (Microsoft IIS) for local development with Node.js. I have this server:

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.use(express.static('../../resources'));
var server = app.listen(8282);

and request the glyphicons css file in my website, which loads a font file. but for some reason I got no data in chrome, regardless of the font type. everything is working fine on the public CDN.

enter image description here

Whats wrong with the node server?

It is simple:

loading font files will go Cross-Origin so I need to set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header:

res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*');
