I created a developer account in OKTA and created one new native iOS application but when I try to login to the app using the  
OktaAuth.login(username, password: password).start(withPListConfig: “Okta-PasswordFlow”, view: self)  
.then { tokenManager in  
self.dismissView()  
}  
.catch { error in  
self.activityIndicator.stopAnimating()  
self.errorField.text = error.localizedDescription  
print(“Failure! Received error: (error.localizedDescription)”)  
return  
}  
I keep getting the error Authorization Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (org.openid.appauth.general error -6.)".  
Can you please help me understand why i am getting this error? Am i missing something.
