Swift : getting an error retrieving image from url

Question

I'm trying to retrieve an image from a url but for some reason it will not not display the image

if let url = NSURL(string: "http://cdn.businessoffashion.com/site/uploads/2014/09/Karl-Lagerfeld-Self-Portrait-Courtesy.jpg") { if let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: url) { print("work") imageUIView.image = UIImage(data: data) } else { print("dontwork") } }

Not having any issues. Image is getting retrieved properly. Post the code where you're trying to display the image. — ebby94

Is there any kind of error? I tried with your code and working fine here. Have you make proper IBOutlet connection with imageView? — Jigar Tarsariya

If you are targeting iOS 9.0 or OS X v10.11, you may be running into Apple's App Transport Security. Running your code while targeting these operating system versions, the following output will be displayed int console:

App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.

Apple now requires you to only access files via https or to allow non-https (ie. http) exceptions via info.plist.

If you haven't already, I'd suggest updating your info.plist.

You can do this on a per domain basis, or allow arbitrary loading of non-https url.

For example, update your info.plist with the following keys/values:

If this is your issue, once your info.plist is updated, your code should work.
