Nativescript 7 Error

[gregersen79]

Only testet on iOS @nativescript/ios": "7.0.0".

Please, provide the following version numbers that your issue occurs with:

When I upload a file, I get the error below. The file gets uploaded correct though.

I'm having the same issue, have you found any workaround for now?

Has anyone figured out a workaround?

Has anyone figured out a workaround?

I commented out the offending code in the readProp function and that has been working so far. Though I believe you will lose the upload progress tracking.

[3rror404]

Commenting line 254 of index.ios.ts / line 220 of index.ios.js prevents the crash:

invocation.getReturnValue(ret);

I'm still receiving the progress and complete events with the line removed on iOS 14. I haven't tested elsewhere yet.

Thanks @3rror404, that worked for me. For anyone else fairly new to manually updating plugins and wants to fix this while waiting for the official update, here's what I did. Let me know if there's a better process.

1. Forked @nativescript/plugins and cloned the repo locally.
2. In the local repo, ran npm setup to initialize the packages.
3. Commented out line 254 of packages/background-http/index.ios.ts.
4. Ran npm start and selected @nativescript.background-http.build to build the package.
5. From my NS 7 project, ran ns plugin add ../ns-plugins/plugins/dist/packages/background-http to add the modified plugin to my app (of course you'll need to replace the path with the path on your local machine).

[3rror404]

A major problem with this change is that you lose the ability to monitor progress with task.upload and task.totalUpload.

[andreasteffanoni]

Same issue. Thanks @3rror404, your workaround worked for me as well.

There is a PR that is working great for me on iOS.

NativeScript/plugins#16

I'm also having this issue.

For me in Android and iOS, using NS7 and 5.0.1 version and not working at all
