Question

I’ve managed to get both an iPad and iPhone hooked up to xcode, and can successfully deploy to the device. For some reason I’m getting network errors every time I try an access a feature that requires the internet, so I think there must be some setting in XCode I’m missing.

Do I need to specifically tell xcode that I permit the device to access the network?

Turns out it was an issue with PhoneGap (used to create cross-platform apps by using HTML5).

The error I was getting was similar to this:

SampleApp[549:17803] ERROR whitelist rejection: url='http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.4.min.js'

And the solution can be found here:

“In your PhoneGap.plist file, you need to add the allowed URLs to the ExternalHosts array. I added “*” as I did not want to add each individual URL separately to the list but that’s your choice.”
