Alamofire 4.3.0 setting timeout throws NSURLErrorDomain error

[tato469]

I am using the version 4.3.0 of Alamofire and executing on 10.1 . If I build a custom SessionManager for set a timeout, Alamofire throws a NSURLErrorDomain

I asked in StackOverflow but every solution does not work.

 import Foundation
 import Alamofire

class NetworkManager {

var manager: SessionManager!

    init() {
        let configuration = URLSessionConfiguration.default
        configuration.timeoutIntervalForRequest = 10
        configuration.timeoutIntervalForResource = 10
        configuration.httpAdditionalHeaders = SessionManager.defaultHTTPHeaders
        manager = Alamofire.SessionManager(configuration: configuration)
       }
}

In my ViewController:

let parameters: Parameters = ["email":email.text!]
let alamofireManager = NetworkManager.init()

alamofireManager.manager.request("http://s574275930.mialojamiento.es/sedup/api/cliente/activar", method: .post, parameters: parameters).responseJSON { response in

        switch (response.result) {
        case .success:
               // OK
            break
        case .failure(let error):
             // <---- Here is where is called when NSURLErrorDomain is thrown
            break
        }
    }

I have the same problem. All StackOverflow articles nonworking. Please update this ticket if you find any solution...

Hello I solved the problem with:

    var request = URLRequest(url: NSURL.init(string: "YOUR_URL") as! URL)
    request.httpMethod = "POST"
    request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
    request.timeoutInterval = 10 // 10 secs
    let postString = "param1=\(var1)&param2=\(var2)"
    request.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)
    Alamofire.request(request).responseJSON {
        response in

    }

I pupdated my question in StackOverflow

tato469's solution was the only one working for me

This solution provided by @tato469 was not working for me, as I get Could not cast value of type 'NSMutableURLRequest' to 'Alamofire.URLRequestConvertible' error message.

[tato469]

@gabrieloliva did you finally solve it?

[gfpoliva]

@tato469 I find out that timeout I was getting wasn’t because of Alamofire. I was using a dependency called Timberjack for networking logs in console. This dependency setup was putting something in header that my backend could not handler.

This solution didn't work for me on when using VPN

I think this issue has to do with the SessionManager getting deallocated and cancelling the request.
See https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire/issues/1684 and https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire/issues/157

var request = URLRequest(url: NSURL.init(string: "YOUR_URL") as! URL)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
request.timeoutInterval = 10 // 10 secs
let postString = "param1=(var1)&param2=(var2)"
request.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)
Alamofire.request(request).responseJSON {
response in
print(request.description)
}

Thanks you @tato469

For Swift 3.x / Swift 4.0 / Swift 5.0 users with Alamofire >= 5.0

Used request modifier to increase and decrease the timeout interval.

Alamofire's request creation methods offer the most common parameters for customization but sometimes those just aren't enough. The URLRequests created from the passed values can be modified by using a RequestModifier closure when creating requests. For example, to set the URLRequest's timeoutInterval to 120 seconds, modify the request in the closure.

var manager = Session.default
 manager.request(urlString, method: method, parameters: dict, headers: headers, requestModifier: { $0.timeoutInterval = 120 }).validate().responseJSON { response in

}

OR

RequestModifiers also work with trailing closure syntax.

var manager = Session.default
     manager.request("https://httpbin.org/get") { urlRequest in
    urlRequest.timeoutInterval = 60
    urlRequest.allowsConstrainedNetworkAccess = false
}
.response(...)
