in UiWebView - NSURLConnection/CFURLConnection HTTP load failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -108)

Question

When I open a link in UIWebView and click on facebook icon of content of that URL it gives the following error

2014-01-09 13:15:14.412 AppName[2067:5407] CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-108)
2014-01-09 13:15:14.412 AppName[2067:5407] CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-108)
2014-01-09 13:15:15.063 AppName[2067:5407] CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-108)
2014-01-09 13:15:15.064 AppName[2067:5407] NSURLConnection/CFURLConnection HTTP load failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -108)

I also search this error in google But no result found for -108. results found for 98*

and this same link same process works in safari and also in other app UIWebView. but I take new project for second app and put this link in UIWebView, It gives error.

Please Help and Thanks in Advance.

Have you tested this on multiple devices? Is it happening in your simulator too? — san, Jan 09 '14 at 09:20
yes I test it in two devices and simulator also. but don't work in any device or simulator.' — DharaParekh, Jan 09 '14 at 09:38
Can you post some code related to loading the link in WebView? or sample project? — san, Jan 09 '14 at 10:03

If you put this anywhere in your code the app will bypass certificate validation:

@implementation NSURLRequest(DataController)

+(BOOL)allowsAnyHTTPSCertificateForHost:(NSString *)host
{
return YES;
}

@end

Facebook have https protocol in URL.

Loading a https url in UIWebview in different from loading the normal https url.

And to load https URL please have a look at loading-https-url-in-uiwebview and this SO Post 1 and SO Post 2 here.

It may help you.

I think you are trying to find this:

BOOL _Authenticated;
NSURLRequest *_FailedRequest;
#pragma UIWebViewDelegate

-(BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request   navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType {
    BOOL result = _Authenticated;
    if (!_Authenticated) {
        _FailedRequest = request;
        NSURLConnection *urlConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self];
        [urlConnection start];
    }
    return result;
}

#pragma NSURLConnectionDelegate

-(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection willSendRequestForAuthenticationChallenge:(NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *)challenge {
    if ([challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod isEqualToString:NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust]) {
        NSURL* baseURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"your url"];
        if ([challenge.protectionSpace.host isEqualToString:baseURL.host]) {
            NSLog(@"trusting connection to host %@", challenge.protectionSpace.host);
            [challenge.sender useCredential:[NSURLCredential credentialForTrust:challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust] forAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];
        } else
            NSLog(@"Not trusting connection to host %@", challenge.protectionSpace.host);
    }
    [challenge.sender continueWithoutCredentialForAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];
}

-(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)pResponse {
    _Authenticated = YES;
    [connection cancel];
    [webvw loadRequest:_FailedRequest];
}
