iOS Application Loader: "Not a valid application bundle"

Hi,

I'm often uploading AIR apps to iTunes Connect through Application Loader, but for the past 24hrs it has been complaining that "the file is not a valid application bundle".

I'm using AIR 4.0 at the command line with all the right certificates and app IDs, and I unzip and recompress the payload on a Mac as I've done hundreds of times before. And it happens with all 3 apps that I'm trying to update so it's not an isolated incident.

Has anything changed since AIR 4.0 that would explain this? Has anybody else experienced the same thing this week?

Yes, I'm fine now with Application Loader 2.9.1 thanks. Shame Apple themselves didn't acknowledge that 2.5.1 is no good anymore.

I have exactly the same problem trying to update an app, but did not found a solution yet. Tried all SDK and use application loader version 2.5.1. . If you solved it in the meantime, please let me know.

Glad to hear I'm not alone. Thought I was going crazy! I'm using Application Loader 2.5.1 on a Mac 10.6 as well, so it seems we need to upgrade...

I'm going round in circles here with Apple refusing to shed any light on the issue and sending me back to Adobe:
"We’ve determined that your question should be addressed by the support channel for FLASH / Air - the third-party resource you are using."


To re-iterate, I am uttlerly incapable of creating a package with ANY version of the AIR SDK that Application Loader will accept.

Also happens with the latest AIR 14 SDK. so now I don't know what the issue could be...
