iOS 9 Parse update questions

Question

I have an app that uses parse and ever since updating to iOS 9 it doesn't pull any data but rather gives me this error message over and over again...

[Error]: The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection. (Code: 100, Version: 1.8.2)

I've noticed that libz.dylib and libsqlite3.dylib are in red, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Side note: in a different project I tried to add those frameworks but they no longer exist so I went to add other, then did CMD shift G, then put in '/usr/lib', and grabbed them from there, the libsqlite3 worked fine but the libz.dylib automatically changed to libz.1.dylib when I added it.

Any ideas? Thank you!

Answer 1

You may need to add a security exception in your info.plist file. Some combination of the keys below should solve it.

Answer 2

You have to follow the App Transport Security requirements specified in https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/technotes/App-Transport-Security-Technote/

As a quick fix, you can add the following in your Info.plist:

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

This code will disable App Transport Security.

Answer 3

Your red dylib entries are another issue, most likely unrelated to the Transport Security policy error.

Try removing the libraries and relinking to the equivalent .tbd files instead.
