Phantom JS synchronous AJAX request : NETWORK_ERR: XMLHttpRequest Exception 101

Question

I am making a synchronous ajax call ( ajax settings async: false ). This works well.

Now I'm trying to write an automated test for this in phantomJS and I'm getting this error

NETWORK_ERR: XMLHttpRequest Exception 101 

I checked my service logs and it seems like service is not getting any request.

Try disabling the web security by using the command-line option --web-security=no when running your script. (phantomjs --web-security=no yourscript.js)

From the PhantomJS reference (http://phantomjs.org/api/command-line.html):

"--web-security=[true|false] enables web security and forbids cross-domain XHR (default is true). Also accepted: [yes|no]
