AFNetwork: Getting "finished with error - code: -999" warning

I am doing a get API request and everything works fine, but I am getting the following warning in the console.

Task <13369ECB-128E-41B7-B9E4-DC7D3E47D0C1>.<2> finished with error - code: -999

This only occurs for a certain API endpoint. This makes no sense to me at all. I thought -999 stands for cancelled request, but my requests are finished.

I think this might be a security issue simply because all my get requests work for multiple api endpoints, but not a specific one. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Solution

  • Yes, this means it was canceled, but the question is why

    1. be patient to make sure you didn't cancel the request.
    2. returned when an asynchronous load is canceled. A Web Kit framework delegate will receive this error when it performs a cancel operation on a loading resource.
    3. may be caused by an invalid SSL certificate
