Air > ApplicationLoader failures - ** Gun now in mouth Edition **

Hello !

In Jan I built my .ipa file, zipped it & deployed it to the app store without a hitch. Amazing really.

Now I'm updating it and building it from exactly the same set of resources - just updating the version no. in the xml file accordingly.

and so now of course the fecker doesn't work - I get this double whammy for my troubles.

"application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements, or it was not signed with an Iphone distribution certificate.

Unable to extract codesigning entitlements from your application. Please make sure HE1 is a valid Mach executable that's properly codesigned."

My question really should be - has something has happened to way IOS interprets an Air Built .ipa on uploading side recently ?

This new version was built using air 3.4, but on failing I rolled back & built it with 3.3 which the original was created with - nothing else has changed. Original swf was generated in Flash CS5.5 and then built with a lovely .bat file as seen below..

"C:\AdobeAIRSDK_3.4\bin\adt.bat" -package -target ipa-app-store -storetype pkcs12 -keystore "provisioning\DistributionCertJan2014.p12" -storepass 3d1a -provisioning-profile "provisioning\Dist2.mobileprovision" distApp3.ipa "provisioning\Mobile-Dist.xml" "aMobile.swf" provisioning -extdir NativeExtensions

I had the same problem, generating all certs/provisioning profiles didn't help, but restarting mac did

This is just a guess, but have you checked all the certificates that you used to generate your provisioning file etc are still current?

Flash sometimes wipes out the app ID in the flash IDE if you save a new version, check that. Also make sure you are pairing a development provisioning profile with a development certificate. If you are going off your last submitted file you might have the distribution certificate and/or provisioning profile still chosen.
