Hi, There seems to be only:

  • Quick publishing for device testing
  • Quick publishing for device debugging
  • Deployment - Ad hoc
  • Deploymnet - Apple App Store

How does one do Deployment for in-house Enterprise Apps from Flash CS5.5 with AIR for iOS?

Thanks!

Hi !

There's no problem with In House and Air ( In flash builder or other IDE )

You just have to be carefull with the .p12. You have to Extract it from the MacOS KeyChain sync with the dev certificate with a password In p12 format. If you don't Extract it correctly you lost the private key.

I use InHouse and Air for 1year and half now with 10 project and about 2000 different iPad

Good Luck !

Thank you for the reply.

Unfortunatelly i dont have a mac. What do you mean Extract?

Right now I have a distribution certificate and an in-house provision file. You say that i need to use dev certificate?

Can we have A short chat on skype or on mail about this?

To help fellow boneheads like me, who spent half a day trying the solutions above to no avail, make sure the .p12 certificate you are using is created using the distribution certificate, and not the developement certificate.

Once I did that, publishing out using "Deployment - Apple App Store" worked like a charm for my enterprise app.

I faced a similar situation with the ad-hoc distribution just not with an enterprise licence. I've summarised my findings here: http://teampokpok.com/2012/air-for-ios-dev-usin-windows-pc/

It covers a lot of what is mentioned above and the resources I used to compile the steps. Hope it helps.

I echo David's, it sure would be nice to get some sort of response from Adobe on this, before I have to commandeer a coworkers Mac and hack the build using the previous link.  Would really like to avoid that if at all possible.

Thanks

Hi:

If you have iOS Enterprise Developer account, you can create ad-hoc distribution certificate/provision and use it in the Deployment - Ad hoc type. Doesnt this help? or am I missing the actual question?

Hi Saumitra,

Thanks for entering this discussion.

Ad-Hoc distrubution is limited and unacceptable for enterprise, in-house non- app store, app distribution.  Ad-Hoc is only used for testing on a few devices, not for distributing finished apps.

From apple:

To include users that are not part of your development team in your testing, you must add their devices to your team and issue them user testing provisioning profiles (also known as ad-hoc provisioning profiles), which allow them to install your apps on their devices.

http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Xcode/Conceptual/ios_development_workflow/35-Distributing_Applications/distributing_applications.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40007959-CH10-SW2

We, as in Flash CS 5.5 users building apps for enterprise, in-house non app-store distribution, with an enterprise licence, badly need to be able to package these with the provisioning profile built in, as Xcode does. This way we can distribute without having to manage individual provisioning profiles for EVERY device that will receive the app. Currently I believe the only way is to workaround as is linked above. Untested by me so far, but evidently others have had success.

Hope this helps and that we can get a fix asap?

Best,

Dave

Has anyone got an answer on support for enterprise distribution support in Flash Builder (no Macs, so XCode not available)?

Strange that adobe itself doesn't come up with a decent solution.
They dropped flash players for mobile devices, and are more focussing on app development. So why not add enterprise in-house distribution support?

November 17, 2011

Is it possible to do ios enterprise distribution from flash builder?  Or is the above hack still required?  Is there any new from adobe about addressing this?

Thanks!
