I'm try to file upload operation using AFNetworking multi-part form data. I'm getting following error. I could find out what is error.

[NSURL URLWithString:filePath] Also used [[NSURL URLWithString:filePath] filePathURL], But doesn't help me. When I log filepath string: It shows correct path : /var/mobile/Applications/3CBF5127-B2FF-49C3-AC98-16BD0886EEE7/Documents/20140326105108_slno.ma4

Error: @"NSLocalizedFailureReason" : @"Expected URL to be a file URL"
