Error 401: Alamofire/Swift 3 - swift

Question

This code previously works, and suddenly after several works around it stopped and return an Error 401.
Alamofire.request(WebServices.URLS().TabDataURL, method: .post, parameters: reqParams).validate().responseJSON { response in
let statusCode = (response.response?.statusCode) //Get HTTP status code
guard response.result.isSuccess, let value = response.result.value else {
// FIXME:you need to handle errors.
print("Status, Fetching News List:", statusCode)
return
}
I have check via Postman, the parameters are correct. Infact, I can also login (by passing 2 parameters). But when I want to pull in a JSON data from server, I am getting 401.
my main project doesn't have an error. but instead of returning the JSON data, it gave me an Error 401. my other projects (same code format, same server & parameters) is giving me this error.
Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.} it worked!
Also, I have check with my other projects -- it seemed I cannot connect aswell. So I suspect it could be because of Alamofire, or my Xcode?
Anyone can help me?

Hi i think your server Response is not correct because, as error indicate object should not start with array same issue i come across tell backend developer to send response in dictionary,
{NSDebugDescription=JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.}
let headers = [String: String]()// To add header if any
Alamofire.request(path,method: mType, parameters: parameters, encoding: JSONEncoding.default, headers : headers) .responseJSON
{ response in
//----- this code always works for me. & You don't need add header if not required.
if let JSON = response.result.value {
print("JSON: \(JSON)")
if response.response?.statusCode == 200
{
successCompletionHandler(JSON as! NSDictionary)
}
else if response.response?.statusCode == 401
{
failureCompletionHandler(JSON as! NSDictionary)
}
else
{
failureCompletionHandler(JSON as! NSDictionary)
}
}
else
{
print("error message")
failureCompletionHandler([WSAPIConst.ERROR:WSAPIConst.ERROR_MESSAGE])
}
}
