# CORS issues

If you are experiencing connection issues when trying to access your Medusa server from a storefront, it is most likely due to Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) issues.

You might see a log in your browser console, that looks like this:

In your `medusa-config.js` , you should ensure that you've configured your CORS settings correctly. By default, the Medusa starter runs on port `9000`, Medusa Admin runs on port `7000`, and the storefront starters run on port `8000`.

The default configuration uses the following CORS settings:

```jsx
// CORS when consuming Medusa from admin
const ADMIN_CORS = process.env.ADMIN_CORS || "http://localhost:7000,http://localhost:7001"

// CORS to avoid issues when consuming Medusa from a client
const STORE_CORS = process.env.STORE_CORS || "http://localhost:8000"
```

If you wish to run your storefront or Medusa admin on other ports, you should update the above settings accordingly.
