CLLocationManager - kCLErrorDomain

Question

I have a CLLocation manager. It works fine.

locManager = CLLocationManager()
locManager.delegate = self
locManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
locManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
locManager.startUpdatingLocation()

And of course, I have the delegate methods:

func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: NSError) {
        println("didfail")
        println(error)
    }

func locationManager(manager:CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations:[AnyObject]) {
        println("location manager called..")
        let locationLast = locations.last as! CLLocation

        latitude = locationLast.coordinate.latitude.description
        longitude = locationLast.coordinate.longitude.description

        locManager.stopUpdatingLocation()

       //....
    }

There is no any problem it's working! But, when i'm here 47.5775679 19.0488392 (or at in 1-2km radius of this point ) it's throws this error:

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

I was tried with simulator and real devices too. I have internet connection on the real devices when i was trying. Is there a black hole? :) or i don't know.

Could anybody please give me any idea about, what cause this phenomenon?

Thank you!

Did you try to run Maps app while at the same location? Does it show your location? Is accuracy good? — Alex Pavlov

This is happen when your device is not able find out your location from actual GPS system , wifi or internet. My observation is that when device(it was iPhone 4 for my case) is in a close room and connected with Wifi using hotspots from Laptop then most the time I am getting this same error.

Possible Solutions -

If you got this error try to call locManager.stopUpdatingLocation() and again call locManager.startUpdatingLocation().
Check your device having valid WIFI or 3G/2G Internet connection
Go to settings and reset your location services
Reset your network settings

Hope this will help you.
