Undocumented NSURLErrorDomain error codes (-1001, -1003 and -1004) using StoreKit

All error codes are on "CFNetwork Errors Codes References" on the documentation (link)

A small extraction for CFURL and CFURLConnection Errors:

  kCFURLErrorUnknown   = -998,
  kCFURLErrorCancelled = -999,
  kCFURLErrorBadURL    = -1000,
  kCFURLErrorTimedOut  = -1001,
  kCFURLErrorUnsupportedURL = -1002,
  kCFURLErrorCannotFindHost = -1003,
  kCFURLErrorCannotConnectToHost    = -1004,
  kCFURLErrorNetworkConnectionLost  = -1005,
  kCFURLErrorDNSLookupFailed        = -1006,
  kCFURLErrorHTTPTooManyRedirects   = -1007,
  kCFURLErrorResourceUnavailable    = -1008,
  kCFURLErrorNotConnectedToInternet = -1009,
  kCFURLErrorRedirectToNonExistentLocation = -1010,
  kCFURLErrorBadServerResponse             = -1011,
  kCFURLErrorUserCancelledAuthentication   = -1012,
  kCFURLErrorUserAuthenticationRequired    = -1013,
  kCFURLErrorZeroByteResource        = -1014,
  kCFURLErrorCannotDecodeRawData     = -1015,
  kCFURLErrorCannotDecodeContentData = -1016,
  kCFURLErrorCannotParseResponse     = -1017,
  kCFURLErrorInternationalRoamingOff = -1018,
  kCFURLErrorCallIsActive               = -1019,
  kCFURLErrorDataNotAllowed             = -1020,
  kCFURLErrorRequestBodyStreamExhausted = -1021,
  kCFURLErrorFileDoesNotExist           = -1100,
  kCFURLErrorFileIsDirectory            = -1101,
  kCFURLErrorNoPermissionsToReadFile    = -1102,
  kCFURLErrorDataLengthExceedsMaximum   = -1103,

I have similar problems, in my case seem to be related to network connectivity:

Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1001 "The request timed out."

Things to check:

  • Is there any chance that your server is not able to respond within some time limit? Like 60 seconds or 4 minutes?
  • Is there a possibility that your device is switching networks (WiFi, 3G, VPN)?
  • Could someone (client vs. server) be waiting for authentication?

Sorry, no ideas how to fix. Just debugging this, trying to find out what the problem is (-1021, -1001, -1009)

Update: Google search was very kind to find this:

  • -1001 TimedOut - it took longer than the timeout which was alotted.
  • -1003 CannotFindHost - the host could not be found.
  • -1004 CannotConnectToHost - the host would not let us establish a connection.
