title: Swift/https: NSURLSession/NSURLConnection HTTP load failed
body: <p>Unfortunately this morning my XCode updated to version 7 and the iOS app I was developing with http now wants https. So, following many tutorials, I configured my MAMP server in order to use https/ssl creating a dummy certificate. Now in my iOS app URLs are like the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>static var webServerLoginURL = "https://localhost:443/excogitoweb/mobile/loginM.php"
  static var webServerGetUserTasks = "https://localhost:443/excogitoweb/mobile/handleTasks.php"
  static var webServerGetUsers = "https://localhost:443/excogitoweb/mobile/handleUsers.php"
  static var webServerGetProjects = "https://localhost:443/excogitoweb/mobile/handleProjects.php"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and they work fine if I try to access them in my browser.
  I was used to access the database and php files with NSURLSession.sharedSession().dataTaskWithRequest() which now raises the error in title. For example, here's the line where error is raised:</p>
  
  <pre><code>if let responseJSON: [[String: String]] = (try? NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: NSJSONReadingOptions())) as? [[String: String]] {
  ...
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and this is the complete error message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>2015-09-21 16:41:48.354 ExcogitoWeb[75200:476213] CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-9824)
  2015-09-21 16:41:48.355 ExcogitoWeb[75200:476213] NSURLSession/NSURLConnection   HTTP load failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -9824)
  fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would like to know how to fix this. I've read some useful answers here but there are many things I still don't understand and if anyone would help/explain me I'd be very grateful.</p>
