Code signing broken on Xcode 5.1 + iOS 7.1

Question

Seems Apple has broken provisioning profiles in Xcode 5.1 ??

1. Upgraded to Xcode 5.1
2. Plugged in a device that wasn't registered on Dev Center
3. Asked Xcode to auto-add it

Result:

1. Developer Provisioning Profile is now corrupt in Xcode5

The following had no effect:

1. Restarting Xcode
2. Deleting profile and re-downloading within Xcode
3. Check that certificate is valid
4. Re-building with other profiles for same account/project (ie Distribution profiles) that had NOT been changed (works fine)

NOTE: in iPhone Configuration Utility, the profiles shows up as valid with all the registered devices. In Xcode5.1 I get:

Code Sign error: No codesigning identities found: No codesigning identities (ie certificate and private key pairs) that match the provisioning profile specified in your build settings (“iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.irisconnect.betairisconnect”) were found.

Answer 1

Solution: it's Xcode 5.1 that is broken, with a major bug.

If you allow Xcode5 to download provisioning profiles, it now internally corrupts any Developer profiles it downloaded.

If you instead:

1. quit Xcode
2. login to web version of Dev Center
3. manually download the profile
4. install using iPhone Configuration Utility
5. Re-start Xcode

...everything works fine.

Note: if you ever do the download within Xcode 5.1, then no amount of restarts will help you :(.

Thanks, Apple.

i had the same problem and was tearing my hair out. thanks to the answer above, i went and looked in keychain access and saw that my previous iPhone Developer certificates were listed as expired. so, i deleted these in keychain access.

then:

1) i went to the apple developer portal ( https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/certificate/certificateList.action?type=development ), clicked on the development certificate, and clicked download.
2) i dragged that certificate into keychain access (it's a login cert).
3) i went back to xcode, to the build settings code signing section of the project.
4) by hand, i set the provisioning profiles to my team provisioning profile.
5) i went up into the code signing identity section and by hand selected the new code signing identity.

and voila, it worked...my project built. btw, i went through all that because i had made the fatal error the prior answer indicated, ie i had let xcode download a new certificate and then let it try to fix the code signing issue, and got caught in 1 infinite loop...just kept failing...

hope this helps

Answer 3

I got the same problem.

Here is my solution

1. Download Provision from https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/profileList.action?type=production
2. You will get the file name "mobileprovision", change it to "YourAppName.mobileprovision"
3. Now Click open it with xCode
4. Archive and Submit your application again by Organizer

Answer 4

Here's what worked for me on Xcode 6, iOS 8.

1. Visit https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/profileList.action?type=production
2. Revoked all certificates
3. Closed/restarted XCode.
4. Attempted to Build/Run again.

This time the Auto Fix process in XCode worked.
