What is up with provisioning profiles?

[ChrisSheffield]

Hi all,

I have been struggling for the past few days to get an app built and running on an iPad. I've got a dev certificate and have created a provisioning profile using that certificate, which includes my device, among others.

When I select my iPad in the Test Target menu and then select Test from the Development menu, I end up with the error message in attachment 1. If I just build the standalone like normal, the process completes as expected, but when I use Xcode to install the app on my device, I get the following from Xcode:

Error installing '/Volumes/LaCie Dev/Read Naturally/ReadNatDev/LiveCode/Mobile Projects/Splat-o-nym/builds/Splat-O-Nym/1.0.4.1/splatonym2/splatonym.app', ERROR: Error Domain=com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError Code=3002 "Failed to install the app on the device."

What am I missing? I've gone through the process of regenerating certificates and profiles three or four times now, trying different things. Nothing seems to fix the issue for me. I'm running MacOS Ventura 13.5.2, LiveCode 9.6.10, and Xcode 14.2.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I can only guess, but have you installed the World Wide Developer Relations certificate from Apple?
https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=5zb13auf
At the bottom of the page there is a link to the download page, you need the certificate that expires in 2030. The article says Xcode will update it automatically but if you never installed it, maybe that didn't happen.

Updating that certificate didn't fix the problem unfortunately. I finally tried the previous version of LC (9.6.9) and that did fix the issue. So I'm guessing some strange issue with LC 9.6.10. It doesn't seem to be signing the app correctly.

Thanks for the reply, though.

Glad you found a workaround. The issue should probably be reported in the bug database, LC will want to know. https://quality.livecode.com

I'm now getting this in LC 9.6.11 too. Apart from downgrading to 9.6.9 is there any other solution that anyone's come across?

Thanks, Al.

I’ve built successfully for iPad using Livecode 9.6.11 on Ventura 13.6.3 (22G436) using Xcode 15.0
