CORs with domain name does not work

I have an Web API application. My Angular web UI calls the web API. I have modified the application to make the http calls like below

var urlString = SomeSettings.apiServiceBaseUri + 'api/Test';
var getData = function (urlString) {----}

I also have enabled the Cors in Web Api config as below.

 //Enable Cors
        //Right now adding URLs for Dev and QA
        var cors = new EnableCorsAttribute("http://DevAPIURL.com, http://QAAPIURL.com", "*", "*");
//            var cors = new EnableCorsAttribute("*", "*", "*");
        cors.SupportsCredentials = true;

        config.EnableCors(cors);

With this setting, if I am debugging the application I am getting the "XMLHttpRequest: Network Error 0x80070005, Access is denied." error. I dont see the access-control-allow-origin header in fiddler as well

However if I use * instead of the domain names, I am able to work.

What else is going wrong in this.

I got this working. Some one in another thread also had suggested but I kind of ignored that. Here is the solution

I installed the Microsoft.Owin.Cors and then in the startup.Auth.cs class I added the below line as the 2st line in ConfigureAuth method.install-package Microsoft.Owin.Cors

Thats it.

I removed the configuration from WebWPIConfig.cs class.

Testted both authentication and API Controller method all worked.
