I am building an app for Mac which logs into a website based on login and password collected from textfield and secure text field, then app opens an url which is created in my app based on date range selection with use of two date picker cell calendars. Next app displays html data in webWiev (using WKWebView), converts html to string using extension NSAttributedString and then saves retrieved data as txt file. Everything works as expected as long as app is run from Xcode "play" button. Problem is if I archive this app and launch it, it will bring up an empty window without any button, calendar or textfield. There are no errors, no crash logs on organizer, nothing.
I decided to perform a little test. I build another view controller with only one button which upon clicking will show my app main view controller. After archiving this modified app and running it outside of Xcode a window shows view controller with one button which is correct. But after clicking it nothing happens. App works great if running "inside" Xcode, a pushbutton shows main ViewController correctly. Do You have any clue what can be wrong? thank You!
Edit 1. So I found a discussion on apple which mention this problem. It is associated with IB WKWebView and problem is already known since some time. Now I have to get around the problem. Apple forum link: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/116047
Did you embed WebKit.framework to your app?
After comment that I wrote, I founded a solution and solved with this method.
Please check it out.
I recently updated to Xcode 7 and upgraded my iPhone to iOS 9. I have developed and released an iOS app that had worked perfectly fine on the latest version of iOS 8 and Xcode 6.
Upon trying to go through the process of updated the app for iOS 9 support, I am getting the most ridiculously strange error that has left me baffled.
I have done all the syntax corrections automatically through Xcode, and now my app builds properly. It even runs fine at first.
I have a button that segues to a view controller with a WebView. This view controller loads a link that will display either an image, website, or video from youtube. The content is loaded perfectly fine as always. However, the program will crash and reboot the simulator (and my iPhone) and send me to the lock screen when I click the Back button (I am on a navigation stack).
In Xcode, I get the following messages:
XPC Connection Interrupted.
Terminating since there is no system app.
I have Flurry analytics integrated in my app by the way, not sure if thats an issue.
How can I fix this issue? My searches for XPC connections do not seem to return problems similar to mine. I do not even have a clue what an XPC connection is, so why is this in my app anyway?
EDIT: I have found a workaround for the issue. I cannot really say it is a fix.
The crashing was occurring during the use of the method self.navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated, when set to true. I happened to set this to false, and the crashing stops (now the transition looks awful).
I do not know why this works, and just adds to my confusion.
The problem lied in the storyboard for me as well. I created a new project and laid out the views and everything seemed to be working fine. I found these couple lines in the storyboard source (right click on storyboard and select view as -> source code) which weren't common between the working version and the broken version:
<keyCommands>
<keyCommand/>
</keyCommands>
I have no idea what those lines are supposed to do, or how they crept into my storyboard file, but they were what was crashing the app so hard that the phone had to restart. I removed those lines from my main project and everything worked again.
This error can be caused by executing a loop repeatedly. In my case it was a 'for' loop in which I reset the counting variable. As soon as I added an NSLog in the loop it was obvious.
I just faced the same problem. I don't know if that will help you, but I also think it's coming from the Storyboard:
In my case, the problem is coming from a UITextView. Whenever I try to change the default text inside it, I have this error. If I let the default text or leave it empty, the app works fine. Making an IBOutlet and changing the text programmatically works as well.
I tried with other UI elements, but only the UITextView seems to have this issue.
I have struggled with exact same error. Through a process of elimination I established that it had nothing to do with the any class but had to do with the storyboard. Luckily I keep regular backup copies and I tried to compare storyboards to establish what I had done - but could find nothing obvious.
The backup copy worked fine and I was able to copy my controller classes (from the faulty copy with the changes) into the backup copy and they worked fine.
I think there is a bug possibly in storyboards.
I have same error message when I place a subview in -layoutSubviews method:
-(void)layoutSubviews
{
[super layoutSubviews];
[self populateByImageViews];
}
It causes infinite cycle of layout process and crashes app. Don't place subviews in this place!
Deleting UITextView from the one of the view in Storybord removes the error in my case.
In valueChanged: method of a UIControl, I had the same problem
so I made the code inside valueChanged: to run in main thread and it solved the problem.
#IBAction func valueChanged(sender: AnyObject) {
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), {
//code
}
}
For me was some missing constraints with a UISearchBar, but the error was only in the simulator.
I only add some constraints and works better
For me it was xcode live issues caused by IB_DESIGNABLE
If you have any IB_DESIGNABLE in source files, the system's live tracker will check for issues in StoryBoard too. It may leads to unnecessary building.
To disable it-
Open Storyboard file. Editor -> Automatically Refresh Views (Uncheck)
If you needs to Disable Live issue tracking
XCode -> Preferences -> General -> Issues -> Uncheck Live Issues
Reference
My issue probably originated with some storyboard issue, but I cleaned the project, restarted Xcode AND restarted the simulator app and that fixed it.
When using QLPreviewController, I am confronted with this problem. Error messages as follows,
XPC connection interrupted
_BSMachError: (os/kern) invalid capability (20)
_BSMachError: (os/kern) invalid name (15)
Since XPC means OS X interprocess communication, so I think this can solve the problem, especial when updating the UI
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
// do what you want to do.
});
For Swift 4+, user
DispatchQueue.main.async {
//Your Code
}
I know there is a similar question but the OP seems to think his problem was only on the simulator and so not such an issue... But I think mine is in both.
I was having a problem adapting an app for iCloud storage (when trying to observe for NSUbiquityIdentityDidChangeNotification). I could not see what the problem was with my code and so...
...after hours of banging my head against a wall I have set up a new project in Xcode (v6.1 6A1046a) to try and narrow it down. It seems it must be a very basic problem indeed...
The only things I have done in this new projects are:
Enable iCloud capabilities for 'Key-value storage' and for 'iCloud
Documents'(using the default container) - no error messages, appears to be set up fine.
Add a label and a button to the provided view controller in IB.
Add an IBOutlet for both and hook up an IBAction to change the label text when pressed.
For clarity, the only code I added to an empty 'Single View Application' template is:
#IBOutlet weak var label: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var button: UIButton!
#IBAction func buttonPressed(sender: AnyObject) {
self.label.text = "You pressed the button"
}
So if I run the project from Xcode in the simulator or on the device, or if I run the project directly on the device, it launches fine and the button works properly - as you would expect...
The problem is:
If I am running on the device from Xcode & I go to the Settings->iCloud->iCloud Drive on the device and toggle the switch for my app (from/to either state) the app crashes. I'm getting no feedback except this:
If I am running the app directly on the device and try and toggle iCloud Drive setting, when I go back into the app it appears to restart (the view is being reset, along with the label.text - neither of which happen if I just visit settings without touching the switch).
It also has the habit of freezing my device completely, which is mildly irritating.
I'm new to iCloud development so I guess I may be missing something really basic...
As I say it's an empty project with only a couple of lines of additional code so it's probably not something I HAVE done. Which limits it to something I HAVEN'T done. I am trying to follow as many tutorials as I can find and as much apple documentation as well. I just can't see any obvious steps I may have overlooked.
Unless it's the expected behaviour, or an Apple issue I guess.
Thanks for any help - it's driving me nuts!
iOs kill your app when you change iCloudDrive state. This is standard iOs behavior you can check this with build in applications(Safari for example).
I have a mobile web application, working well on simulator 5.1/6.0, xcode 4.5 for iphone.
But when I test on a real device (3gs, ios 5.1), I get a strange behavior: anywhere I place an input field html element, where I need the user to fill in something, I tap the field, it gains focus (I see the cursor), but the touch-keyboard does not come up and I can't type anything. If I try it on the sim, all is fine, the kb comes up.
I am not sure how to diagnose this... tried googling for some answers, haven't found any :(
any ideas?
thanks...
ok found the issue, seems like the app was not created using the latest Xcode template (it is a legacy app), so I removed the MainWindowxxx.xibs which I don't need, and used the code from a new XCode app template to initialize the app by programmatically creating the main view controller, and setting it as the window's rootViewController. And, of course, call [self.window makeKeyAndVisible]
I've got an app that uses Apple's Push Notification Service. I'm registered, and receive the notifications just fine. However, when I go into the Settings -> Notifications area, my app is listed, but there's no icon visible. Is there a flag, or a special PNG I need to include in my bundle?
Thanks!
Okay, stupid mistake. The info.plist icon field was empty. By default, the OS still looks for an icon.png file for Springboard, but doesn't use the same trick for the Notification settings.
