NSURLSession/NSURLConnection HTTP load failed

ionic-v1
1

Hello,
I’m working on a new mobile application used to monitor sales on Envato Markets. I’m having a problem with the last update to iOS9.

When application tries to connect to envato API I’m getting an error:

NSURLSession/NSURLConnection HTTP load failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -9802)

I’m trying to add this line in my config.xml file:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
  <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
  <true/>
</dict>

but still getting an error.

Are you familiar with this issue?
Can anybody suggest a solution?

Thank you.

Regards,
Krzysiek

I’m also stuck with this issue after updating my iPhone and Xcode to iOS 9. Have you tried adding this code to AppDelegate.m?

@implementation NSURLRequest(DataController) 
+ (BOOL)allowsAnyHTTPSCertificateForHost:(NSString *)host 
{ 
    return YES; 
} 
@end

For me that doesn’t work, also there are voices that Apple will reject for that piece of code.

I’ve read that this is something with server configuration/nginx however even Instagram API doesn’t work for me.

I fixed it … try add this lines:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
    <true/>
</dict>

In this file: (…)/platforms/ios/YOURAPP/YOURAPP-Info.plist after this line:

<plist version="1.0"><dict>

This didn’t work for me. It’s also not recommended by Apple.

What really helped me is adding this to Info.plist:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
	<key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
	<dict>
		<key>instagram.com</key>
		<dict>
			<key>NSExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy</key>
			<false/>
			<key>NSIncludesSubdomains</key>
			<true/>
		</dict>
		<key>amazonaws.com</key>
		<dict>
			<key>NSIncludesSubdomains</key>
			<true/>
			<key>NSExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy</key>
			<false/>
		</dict>
        </dict>
</dict>

Replace amazonaws.com and instagram.com with your domains/api endpoints.

Thank you :smile: I probably change my file.

Thanks guys, the allowsAnyHTTPSCertificateForHost was necessary for mine to work.

Worked for me.
In my case it was with the Ionic Deploy server. The SSL certificat seems valid, but somehow iOS 9 doesn’t like it :frowning:

Whilst these changes to the plist work, they get wiped out every time you run a build command. Is there a way to do this from the config.xml file?

I’m seeing this despite having configured a Content-Security-Policy for my app.

I’ve set AllowArbitraryLoads to FALSE and all my XHR requests are going through, but Xcode logs this message every 10 seconds:

NSURLSession/NSURLConnection HTTP load failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -9802)
