Store cannot read XML from external source but can do it when reading from local source

Question

I need to read content from a data source which is located on a remote server (I do not have access to modify anything).

I have tried to get the content, but it doesn't work.

What then I did was I downloaded this data source which is a XML file and put it under same folder with my code to test the correctness of my code syntax and found that the code works.

But when I changed back to the external data resource, it still reads but returns no content:

from: url: 'app/store/configuration.xml'
to:   url: 'http://webtrak.bksv.com/mel/configuration'

This is not caused by CORS issue as I am testing my app on real devices.

Here are my store and model:

Ext.define('myApp.store.SensorStationStore', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Store',
    requires: ['myApp.model.SensorStation', 'Ext.data.reader.Xml'],
    config:{
        model: 'myApp.model.SensorStation',
        storeId: 'SensorStore',
        autoLoad: true,
        proxy: {
                 type: 'ajax',
                 url: 'http://webtrak.bksv.com/mel/configuration',
                 //url: 'app/store/configuration.xml',
                 reader: {
                     type: 'xml',
                     record: 'locations',
                     rootProperty: 'nmts'
                 }
              }
           }
    
        });

Ext.define('myApp.model.SensorStation', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
    config: {
        fields: [
            {
                
                name: 'name', 
                type: 'string',
                mapping: '@name'
                //convert: function (value, record) {
                //    Ext.Msg.alert(value,record.raw);
                //    //var nodes = rec.raw.querySelectorAll('');
                //}
            },
            {
                name: 'lat',
                mapping: '@latitude',
                type: 'float'
            },
            {
                name: 'lng',
                mapping: '@longitude',
                type: 'float'
            },
            {
                name: 'locid',
                mapping:'@locid',
                type: 'string'
            }
        ]
    }
});

I figured out what's the problem is... I have never worked with XML so,I don't know how the response of ajax request look like ,but by applying following code for store will fill your app's store(just a little change in your code)

Code:

Ext.define('myApp.store.SensorStationStore', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Store',
    requires: ['myApp.model.SensorStation', 'Ext.data.reader.Xml'],
    config:{
        model: 'myApp.model.SensorStation',
        storeId: 'SensorStore',
        autoLoad: true,
        proxy: {
            type: 'ajax',
            url: 'http://webtrak.bksv.com/mel/configuration',
            //url: 'app/store/configuration.xml',
            reader: {
                type: 'xml',
                record: 'locations',
                rootProperty: 'nmts'
            }
        }
    } });

You are trying to apply store configs outside of config object. Cheers!!
