NSURLSession with invalid resume data

Question

I use [NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration] to config my url session.

I pause a task by calling cancelByProducingResumeData:

Answer 1

Anytime you relaunch your app, everything under tmp will be cleaned, I was experiencing the same thing, even though I tried to copy all the *.tmp, and paste back whenever app relaunches, it'll throw an error

My advice is that, you check if the *.tmp file is accessible, redownload from start if not

Answer 2

I encountered this problem. I found that sandbox path will change after the application restart in iOS8. But the resumeData record the old sandbox path, that let the download task can’t find the resumeData. So I update the sandbox path recorded in sandbox by key ‘NSURLSessionResumeInfoLocalPath’, it does work:

NSDictionary *dic = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:resumeDataPath];
NSString *resumeDataFileName = [dic[@"NSURLSessionResumeInfoLocalPath"] lastPathComponent];
NSString *newTempPath = NSTemporaryDirectory();
NSString *newResumeDataPath = [newTempPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:resumeDataFileName];
[dic setValue:newResumeDataPath forKey:@"NSURLSessionResumeInfoLocalPath"];
[dic writeToFile:resumeDataPath atomically:YES];
