Build fails due to missing provisioning profile

Tom_R_3 — Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:29:30 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to build my application for iOS with Intel XDK ver. 1816 and I'm getting the following log: Wh

Building a Cordova 3.5 application.
The application name is "Foo"
The package name is "foo"
Will use the provisioning profile for "adhoc"
Warning: No provisioning profile found.
Error: Provisioning profile is missingd from the configuration file.

When go to Projects > Build Settings > iOS and try to add an ad hoc provisioning profile I alway geht the message:

iOS Provisioning config files must be located within the project source directory. Copy your provisioning files into the the source directory first if necessary.

even though the provisioning profile is correct and in the correct folder.

Can somebody help me out?

There have been some

There have been some situations where copying a provisioning file on a Linux system, using the GUI, results in creation of a symbolic link and not copying that actual provisioning file. Check to see that a hard copy of the provisioning file is actually copied into your project directory and not a symbolic link.

Can you provide the full path

Can you provide the full path on your computer to where the provisioning profile is locate? I have seen where username contains odd chars and that causes an issue.

Thanks for the replies. For

Thanks for the replies. For me the solution was to create a new CSR, download the new certificate and create a new profisioning profile with this certificate. I guess I still don't completely understand the concepts here. Should I be able to use one certifcate for multiple applications / profisioning profiles?

Hello

I kind of have the same problem.

Only mine says something different:

Building a Cordova 5.1.1 application.
The application name is "Weekinfo"
The package name is "xdk.intel.blank.ad.template"
Will use the provisioning profile for "production"
Error: Could not copy the provisioning profile [Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision]

This is weird because i do not have the Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision file in my WWW

As provision file i have: Weekinfo.mobileprovision in my WWW and also in "projects>Build Settings>iOS>Production Provisioning File"

Why do i get this error?
ps. previusly i had the Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision file in my WWW but changed it to Weekinfo.mobileprovision later on.

Double check you actually

John_H_Intel2 — Mon, 04 Jan 2016 17:56:45 GMT

Double check you actually have the provisioning profile located in the www directory.

Also, make sure you are selecting the correct ad hoc or production in the drop down for what you are trying to build.

I checked and every file is

Max_M_2 — Tue, 05 Jan 2016 19:15:48 GMT

I checked and every file is where it is supposed to be.
(in the WWW folder and in the build tab under IOS production. (yes i have production checked instead of adhoc))

What could still be the problem? The name of the file it says it cant find (Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision) was in the WWW folder before but now after i removed it and replaced the file to Weekinfo.mobileprovision it still says that it cant find Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision while I don't want it to look for that file, I want it to find Weekinfo.mobileprovision.

I heard some people including Tom R. saying they just restart the whole process and do it all over again and then it worked.
But that just seems like a lot of work to me. maybe there is an easier solution?

Hello,

Hello,

Which XDK version are you using?

Are you trying to submit your app to store? if yes then it is ok to use production else you have to select Adhoc.

Make sure whichever provisioning profile you are copying inside www folder that same provisioning profile needs to be uploaded under adhoc build settings for ios.

Here is the article which might help you.

https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/building-cordova-ios-apps-intel-xdk

Or try logging out of your

Amrita_C_Intel — Wed, 06 Jan 2016 00:18:14 GMT

Or try logging out of your XDK account and login back.

thanks for the quick response

Max_M_2 — Wed, 06 Jan 2016 17:10:13 GMT

thanks for the quick response.

I have Intel XDK version 2807 (latest) and I tried logging out and back in.
I also have read that article multiple times but seem to not have found the problem.

And yes both files are for production(app store).
But that does'nt seem to be the problem because it says it can't find(copy) the Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision file, not you are using the wrong file, file is not accepted etc.

Are you using a symbolic link

PaulF_IntelCorp — Wed, 06 Jan 2016 21:51:07 GMT

Are you using a symbolic link to "copy" the provisioning file into your project? Also, try using a filename with no spaces or special characters, and all lowercase. For example: weekinfo.mobileprovision, not Weekinfo (1).mobileprovision

I tried recreating all the

Max_M_2 — Thu, 07 Jan 2016 19:16:06 GMT

I tried recreating all the files since this was the most logical way for me of understanding the problem.
and everything seemed to be fine :)
SEEMED

The build loading screen took a lot longer then usual with which i was happy, but then again it showed an error with yet a new problem.
It said it could'nt build the app and said i had to look at the build log.

I am not super techie at all but i figuered out the error had to be somewhere below all the lines of information.
There i saw a line which said:

ERROR building one of the platforms: Error: .../PwsAppMetCordova/platforms/ios/cordova/build: Command failed with exit code 2
You may not have the required environment or OS to build this project

Now could this be the problem? that i have the wrong OS? (Windows 10)
This seems weird to because everything worked fine until i started to build. and if i truly have the wrong OS for making an ios app
then why is that option there in the first place?

I think a solution would be to "copy" my project to my MAC (i am using a windows right now) and build it from there.
So my last question is: is it possible to "copy" a project from windows to a mac?

Hello,

Amrita_C_Intel — Thu, 07 Jan 2016 19:47:27 GMT

Hello,

I really doubt that OS is the problem. Can you provide your entire build log?

And from MAC you need to sign in with your account credentials and copy the files may be through USB storage device or any other and then you can open your projects by just clicking to the .xdk files.

Look at the detailed build log. You will see this:

Check dependencies
Code Sign error: Provisioning profile does not match bundle identifier: The provisioning profile specified in your build settings (“weekinfo”) has an AppID of “com.weekinfo.*” which does not match your bundle identifier “xdk.intel.blank.ad.template”.

** BUILD FAILED **

You must specify the same AppID in the XDK Project setting as you do when you create and AppID and provisioning profile. If you dont, you get the above build error.

That error message, from an

PaulF_IntelCorp — Thu, 07 Jan 2016 21:10:23 GMT

That error message, from an iOS build, is usually an indication that a plugin you are using requires Xcode 7. Our current iOS build systems are using Xcode 6. First, identify which plugin is causing the error (remove them one at a time from your build settings until you can build without errors). Then, try an older version of the plugin.

Reaction to JOHN H.:

It is true that i got this error
I think i don't quite understand you.
The Project>IOS>App ID was set to xdk.intel.blank.ad.template, but after i changed it to com.weekinfo.* I still got the same error when building the app. So did i do something wrong? Or did I not really got what you meant? Or is the problem somewhere else?

Reaction to Paul F.

Like I said I am not very techie so sometimes i quite get confused with some terms.
For so far i have only been using HTML and CSS to create this app (I know its not the best way to make an app but it sure makes it easier :))
and haven't used any plugins so far. I don't even know what plugins exactly mean when building an app.

So what do these plugins do?
I currently have 3 which i think are preinstaled:
1.StatusBar
2.Device
3.Splashscreen

If I happen to delete one of these plugins could that possible make my app "not work"?
Because they are pre installed i have know idea what they are doing.

I dont think the build system

John_H_Intel2 — Fri, 08 Jan 2016 17:38:00 GMT

I dont think the build system is designed to handle * appID. Please try using something complete like:

com.weekinfo.myapp

in both the build system and your appID/provisioning profile.

First of all thanks for the

Max_M_2 — Fri, 08 Jan 2016 17:44:25 GMT

First of all thanks for the quick response again!
When I try to enter:

com.weekinfo.myapp

(or something simular: com.weekinfo.firstapp / com.weekinfo.testapp etc.)

It says: Please enter a valid Identifier
Now i have no idea what the identifier is exactly so thats why i googeled it and found that you can just put * to make it work.
However if I want to make it work like the way you described it, how could it do that? Because the example you gave resolves into an error.

NEVERMIND

Max_M_2 — Fri, 08 Jan 2016 17:49:30 GMT

NEVERMIND

Please ignore my reaction form above for i have made a mistake.
I sucsesfully created a new app id and i am testing right now...

Okey so using a different app

Max_M_2 — Fri, 08 Jan 2016 18:06:27 GMT

Okey so using a different app ID still gave an error but this time a different one (which i guess is good?)
