Ios – CLLocationManager startUpdatingLocation not calling locationManager:didUpdateLocations: or locationManager:didFailWithError:

I'm trying to use the CLLocationManager framework in my iOS project to access the user's location but when I call

[locationManager startUpdatingLocation]

neither locationManager:didUpdateLocations: or locationManager:didFailWithError: are getting called.

//myViewController.h
@interface myViewController : UITableViewController <CLLocationManagerDelegate>
@end

//myViewController.m
@implementation myViewController{
    CLLocationManager *locationManager;
}

//edit
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
}
//finish edit

-(void)getLocation
{
    locationManager.delegate = self;
    locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest;
    [locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didFailWithError:(NSError *)error
{
UIAlertView *errorAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
                           initWithTitle:@"Error" 
                                 message:@"Failed to Get Your Location"              
                                delegate:nil 
                       cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" 
                      otherButtonTitles:nil];
[errorAlert show];
}

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations
{
    CLLocation *newLocation = locations[[locations count] -1];
    CLLocation *currentLocation = newLocation;
    NSString *longitude = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.8f", currentLocation.coordinate.longitude];
    NSString *latitude = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.8f", currentLocation.coordinate.latitude];

if (currentLocation != nil) {
   NSLog(@"latitude: %@", latitude);
   NSLog(@"longitude: @"%@", longitude);
}else {
    UIAlertView *errorAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
                               initWithTitle:@"Error" message:@"Failed to Get Your Location" 
                                                     delegate:nil 
                                            cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" 
                                            otherButtonTitles:nil];
    [errorAlert show];
}

}
@end

Neither delegate method is being called despite what it says in the documentation:

"This method returns immediately. Calling this method causes the location manager to obtain an initial location fix (which may take several seconds) and notify your delegate by calling its locationManager:didUpdateLocations: method […] In addition to your delegate object implementing the locationManager:didUpdateLocations: method, it should also implement the locationManager:didFailWithError: method to respond to potential errors."

Don't know how to debug the issue.

Thanks,
