IE11 por alguna razón rechaza una solicitud PUT pero solo cuando uso https. Me resulta muy difícil encontrar el problema, ya que el uso de http, localhost y otros navegadores funciona bien.

La consola muestra dos errores.

SEC7124: Request method PUT was not present in the Access-Control-Allow-Methods list.
SCRIPT7002: XMLHttpRequest: Network Error 0x80070005, Access is denied.

La solicitud de OPCIÓN enviada desde el navegador es

Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Access-Control-Request-Headers: accept, content-type, session-id
Access-Control-Request-Method: PUT   
Cache-Control: no-cache

Host: api.domain.com  
Origin: https://portal.domain.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko

y la respuesta del servidor es la siguiente:

Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Session-Id
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

AngularJS se usa en el lado del cliente estándar $ http PUT se usa. Java con jersey se usa en el lado del servidor y el filtro de solicitud para manejar CORS es el siguiente:

 public ContainerResponse filter( final ContainerRequest request, final ContainerResponse response )
{
    if ( request.getHeaderValue( "Origin" ) != null ) 
    {
        final MultivaluedMap<String, Object> headers = response.getHttpHeaders();
        headers.add( "Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*" );
        headers.add( "Access-Control-Expose-Headers", "Session-Id" );
        headers.add( "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials", Boolean.TRUE.toString() );
    }

    if ( "OPTIONS".equals( request.getMethod() ) ) 
    {
        final MultivaluedMap<String, Object> headers = response.getHttpHeaders();
        for ( String method : ["OPTIONS", "GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE"] ) 
        {
            headers.add( "Access-Control-Allow-Methods", method );
        }
        headers.add( "Access-Control-Allow-Headers",
                "accept, origin, Content-Type, session-id, authorization, portal-url, " 
                + "If-Modified-Since, Cache-Control, Pragma" );
        headers.add( "Access-Control-Max-Age", "-1" );            
    }

    return response;
}

Tal vez puedas ver qué puede estar mal con eso.

Gracias
