导出 ipa 文件失败

Question

Using Xcode v11.3 I try to export my.IPA file and get this error.

An error occurred during export. The data couldn't be read because of it isn't in the correct format

This is shown in IDEDistribution.standard.log

/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.6/usr/lib/ruby/2.6.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require': cannot load such file -- cfpropertylist (LoadError)
    from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.6/usr/lib/ruby/2.6.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'
    from /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/ipatool:15:in `<main>'
2020-02-05 07:57:11 +0000  /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/ipatool exited with 1
2020-02-05 07:57:11 +0000  ipatool JSON: (null)

I have tried rvm use system but in vain. Thanking in anticipation.

Answer 1

TL;DR

Running:

$ gem install CFPropertyList
$ gem install sqlite3

and then restarting solved it for me.

Full story:

I've just had the same problem. Googling around I foundthis article which talks about a different problem, but pointed me to the right direction: there is an issue with Ruby.

I then bumped into this issue which focused on the cannot load such file -- cfpropertylist part of the error message.

Running gem install CFPropertyList effectively allowed me to move forward one more step. This time a similar error complained about sqlite3 . Running gem install sqlite3 , again, should solve the problem.

Please note that you need SQLite installed systemwide ( brew install sqlite ), and that you NEED to restart your system, for whatever reason.
