Missing ios distribution signing identity not expired certificate

Question

I'm having so many issues archiving and uploading my project to the apple store for submission. Probably have gone through changing the bundle identifier-- creating a certificate, updating the app ID and creating a provisioning profile 5 times already.

When I try to validate the project after I've archived it I get the error missing ios distribution signing identity for signing identity (Me)...

Is it because my iphone distribution says 'this certificate has an invalid user'? How do I fix that? I downloaded the certificate link they suggested and used it to create a certificate. Very stuck and frustrated.

Every time I try to change this section to be the iOS Distribution Identity and corresponding Provisioning Profile it says it's unable to find a matching UUID for the provisioning profile. Not sure if that's helpful but it seems like something is mis-configured, just not sure where to look or where to start over, or if there is some lurking configuration from an older mistake that is screwing me up.

Answer 1

delete all the certificates and provisions profiles, reinstall all the certificates and profiles. this might resolve the problem.

Answer 2

Update the apple developer certificate

1->Open keychain

2->Go to view - Show expired certificate

3->Delete the red mark certificate "Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate Authority"

4->Download https://developer.apple.com/certificationauthority/AppleWWDRCA.cer

5->Install it and now see if you are able to use certificate or not
