@Zeuz10 You are right. The security in ios9 and later does not allow any http calls to be sent. To get around the problem, you need to update your Info.plist The instructions are given in this link

this is just -999 , you can deal it with NSURLCancel

Seems to be a bug, I work around it by keeping under https all requests, hits ios9.0 and 9.0.1 as far as I can tell although you need to allow the url exception as apple documentation suggest in the Info.plist

Answer 4

I got this exact error code when trying to connect to a server with ancient TLS support. Workaround: add NSExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy to the app's Info.plist:

<key>NSExceptionDomains</key> 
<dict>
  <key>MY_SERVER_DOMAIN</key>
  <dict>
    <key>NSExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy</key>
    <false/>
  </dict>
  <!-- any other exceptions you may have -->
</dict>
