Context
=======

I'm trying to locally test on Chromium hCaptcha, set on a form. My Laravel 8 site is running thanks to `php artisan serve --host=myhost`.

The problem
===========

Expected behavior
-----------------

I open the form page, hCaptcha shows no error and actually shows the captcha.

Actual behavior
---------------

* **I go to the form page** which contains the hCaptcha widget. (I don't click on the button "Send Form": I actually *just* go to the form page). The hCaptcha widget doesn't show the captcha but instead shows this error message:

> 
> Limited rate or network error. Please retry.
> 
> 
>
* **I open the Chromium console.**

	+ **In the network tab:** I can see this error request (its status = `CORS error`): `https://hcaptcha.com/checksiteconfig?host=myhost&sitekey=XYZ&sc=1&swa=1` (with `Referrer Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin`). Its `OPTIONS` `POST` request's status is `200`;
	+ **In the console tab:**
> 
> Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://hcaptcha.com/checksiteconfig?host=myhost&sitekey=XYZ&sc=1&swa=1' from origin 'https://newassets.hcaptcha.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

What I've tried
===============

I've followed the hCaptcha documentation: <https://docs.hcaptcha.com/#local-development>. Note that I actually followed this doc which is about the vanilla hCaptcha (*i.e.:* I don't use any Laravel/Blade's implementation of hCaptcha). Thus:

1. Ive typed `cat /etc/host`:

> 
> 127.0.0.1 localhost
> 127.0.1.1 myhost
> 
> 
> 

2. I run my PHP server that serves my Laravel site with: `php artisan serve --host=myhost`
3. I open my Laravel site with this URL: http://myhost:8000/contact

Clues to help you to help me
============================

I've seen that the hCaptcha docs speak about ***127.0.0.1*** as you can read it: `127.0.0.1 test.mydomain.com`. In my own Ubuntu `etc/host` I see: `127.0.1.1 myhost` myhost`(127.0.***1***.1).`myhost`is actually the host I use so I actually use`127.0.1.1`instead of`127.0.0.1`.

So: perhaps the hCaptcha client must be configured to use 127.0.1.1 instead of 127.0.0.1?

Final question
==============

What could I do to reach the expected behavior from the actual one?
