CodeName One server error: Signing for “<AppName>” requires a development team. Select a development team in the project editor

Question

I'm trying to submit a build to CodeName One's servers for ios, but I'm getting the following error:

=== BUILD TARGET <> OF PROJECT <> WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===

Check dependencies

Failed xcodebuild step

The code builds fine locally; the error shows up when it is submitted to the remote build servers. I've seen several questions on SO about this xcodebuild issue, but none are for CodeName One. (I assume CodeName One is using xcode when they do their server build.) How do I select a development team from the CodeName One NetBeans plugin?

I used the CodeName One wizard to generate the ios certificates; not sure if that makes a difference.

Answer 1

Is this a university or an enterprise iOS developer account? If so you need to get into the iOS Signing section in Codename One Settings and configure the right options.

Answer 2

After looking at the build error log, Shai was able to identify the issue. The xcode version had been set to 9.2 instead of 7.3. By changing the value of the codename1.arg.ios.xcode_version variable in the codenameone_settings.properties file from 9.2 to 7.3, the build completed successfully.
