objc afnetworking 2.0 show responseObject on error

Question

I upload an image via POST request to an server. On success I get a JSON answer back. Unfortunatly an error occurs. I would like to takle this down, but I do not know how to show the respsonse I get from the server when an error occurs. I would like to see the JSON text which did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.

How do I show the responsebody (not error-body) of an POST request on failure, by using AFNetworking 2.0?

Error Message:

Answer 1

Do you mean this? I'm not sure it was actually resolved.

Answer 2

NSString *errorBodyMessage = [[error userInfo] objectForKey:@"NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion"];
