connect to signalr hub

Question

I have created a simple SignalR hub inside a console application:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args) 
    {    
        using (WebApp.Start<Startup>("http://localhost:1968"))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Server running!");        
            Console.ReadLine();    
        } 
    } 
}

public static class UserHandler
{
    public static HashSet<string> ConnectedIds = new HashSet<string>();
}

[HubName("echo")]
public class EchoHub : Hub 
{ 
    public void Say(string message) 
    { 
        Trace.WriteLine("hub: "+message);
        Clients.All.AddMessage(message);
    }

    public override Task OnConnected()
    {
        UserHandler.ConnectedIds.Add(Context.ConnectionId);
        return base.OnConnected();
    }

    public override Task OnDisconnected()
    {
        UserHandler.ConnectedIds.Remove(Context.ConnectionId);
        return base.OnDisconnected();
    }
}

class Startup 
{ 
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) 
    { 
        app.MapSignalR();
    } 
} 

When I try to connect this from a Silverlight App, it succeeds:

static Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Client.HubConnection signalR { get; set; }
public static Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Client.IHubProxy signalRhub { get; set; }

public static void StartSignalR()
{
    var url = "http://localhost:1968";
    signalR = new Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Client.HubConnection(url);
    signalR.Received += signalR_Received;
    signalRhub = signalR.CreateHubProxy("echo");
    signalR.Start().Wait();
    signalRhub.Invoke("Say", "hub invoked");
}

My next step is to connect the SignalR hub from jquery:

<script src="../Scripts/jquery-1.6.4.js"></script>
<script src="../Scripts/jquery.signalR-2.1.0.js"></script>
<script>
    $(function ()
    {
        var connection = $.hubConnection("http://localhost:1968");
        connection.start()
            .done(function () {
                console.log('connected');
                connection.send("success?");
            })
            .fail(function (a) {
                console.log('not connected'+a);
            });
    });
</script>

When I try to run this script, it gives the error:

"XMLHttpRequest cannot load localhost:1968/signalr/negotiate?clientProtocol=1.4&_=1404978593482. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin <code>http://localhost:55282</code> is therefore not allowed access."

Why can I connect to the hub from my Silverlight page (hosted in localhost:3926)
and fails it when I run the jquery script (hosted in localhost:55282)?

What can I do to get a working connection between my jQuery and SignalR hub?

Change

$(function ()
    {
    var connection = $.hubConnection("http://localhost:1968");
    connection.start()
        .done(function () {
            console.log('connected');
            connection.send("success?");
        })
        .fail(function (a) {
            console.log('not connected'+a);
        });
});

to

$(function ()
{
var connection = $.hubConnection("http://localhost:1968");
var hub = connection.createHubProxy("echo");
hub.on("AddMessage", Method);
connection.start({ jsonp: true })
            .done(function () {
            console.log('connected');
            hub.say("success?");
        })
        .fail(function (a) {
            console.log('not connected'+a);
        });
});

function Method(messageFromHub)
{
alert(messageFromHub);
}

and

class Startup 
{ 
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) 
    { 
        app.MapSignalR();
    } 
} 

to

class Startup 
{ 
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) 
    { 
        app.MapSignalR(new HubConfiguration() { EnableJSONP = true });} 
} 

It should do.

app.MapSignalR(new HubConfiguration() { EnableJSONP = true });} 

and

connection.start({ jsonp: true })

Will allow cross site request

Answer 2

RPC on Server in SignalR with createHubProxy():

Thanks to the answer from Vishal Ravlani

But for me

hub.say("success?");

doesn't work! (Does it work for you?)

I have to write:

hub.invoke('say','success?');

---

And SignalR has automatically detected CrossOrigin on Client.

On Server I have used:

app.Map("/signalr", map =>
            {
                map.UseCors(CorsOptions.AllowAll);

                map.RunSignalR();
            });

which was described on: http://www.asp.net/signalr/overview/signalr-20/hubs-api/hubs-api-guide-javascript-client#crossdomain
