Question

I want to get the current location, but instead I get an error.

This is a snippet of my view controller.

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    self.locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
    [locationManager setDelegate:self];
    [locationManager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyNearestTenMeters];
    [locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager 
     didUpdateLocations:(NSArray<CLLocation *> *)locations {
    // I would get the latest location here
    // but this method never gets called
}
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager 
       didFailWithError:(NSError *)error {
    NSLog(@"didFailWithError: %@", error);
}

I’m expecting the delegate method locationManager:didUpdateLocations: to get called, but instead, only locationManager:didFailWithError: gets called, and prints this:

didFailWithError: Error Domain=kCLErrorDomain Code=0 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 0.)"

1. Check that you actually have a valid WiFi and 3G connection

   …if you do, then:

2. Go to settings and reset your location services

3. Reset your network settings

This should take care of that issue. It is device/network related not app related. It’s annoying especially if your app is dependent on location services and the device is WiFi only and people give negative ratings on the AppStore… Pardon me, I’m getting a bit emotional there.
