Application Failed Codesign Verification

Hi,

i’m trying to build an app (ad-hoc) for testing. Some months ago everything worked fine but now I get the following error:

warning: Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements, or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate. (-19011) failed to extract requirements data: 1 /Users/Robin/Desktop/Guitar\_Design.app: code or signature modified failed to extract entitlements: 1 AssertMacros: entitlements\_requested, At least need an application-identifier entitlements file: /SourceCache/codesign\_wrapper\_Sim/Security-1245/codesign\_wrapper/codesign\_wrapper.c, line: 866 - (null) warning: Unable to extract codesigning entitlements from your application. Please make sure Guitar\_Design is a valid Mach executable that's properly codesigned. (-19050) /Users/Robin/Desktop/Guitar\_Design.app/Guitar\_Design: code or signature modified - (null)

I haven’t done any changes and I use the exact same profiles and certificates as before…

Does anybody know this issue?

Thank you,

best regards,

Robin

@roh300, I wonder if your profiles/certificates have expired.  It might be worth checking.

Thank you for your reply!

I already recreated all of my certificates without success…

@roh300, if I were you, I’d search Forum with “Application Failed Codesign Verification” and read all related threads that come up.  

If I don’t find the answer that way, I’d google with:  “Application Failed Codesign Verification”, site:coronalabs.com

It would bring up thread that might not have been ported to new Forum from the old, and I’d read all related posts.   I’ve seen many people go through this trouble for various reasons, and I imagine there must be one that matches with your situation.

Hi @roh300,

I’d suggest starting fresh… yes, again. :wink:  

And, refer to the following guide on the issue. I know it’s tedious, but such is this Apple process that even seasoned developers struggle with.

Did you solve this? I am having the same problem

I resolved it, I had 2 certificates with the same name, I found out by trying to use the new provisioning profile with xcode, I was getting that error, so I deleted one keychain and now it works.

Yes I “solved” it.

I deleted all profiles and keys on my mac and in the provisioning profile as well. Recreated everything from scratch (and I updated xcode, but I don’t think that was necessary…).

And make sure you are using a distribution profile…

Yikes. I’ve done everything here except for update xcode (I’m running xcode 4.4.1 on OSX 10.7.4)

I deleted all certificates and provisioning profiles from the apple site, and from my local machine, then recreated just a single Distribution cert, and an ad hoc distribution profile from scratch (using the guide Brent linked to, just to be safe), and imported them into my keychain.

When I try to build for iOS, I’m still getting the same errors as others have mentioned.

I’m running out of ideas…  I’ll do a full system update (along with xcode) later today as a last-resort attempt.  Is there some step I’m overlooking?  I feel like I’ve followed all of the steps others have outlined in the multiple threads on this very issue, but haven’t gotten to the same resolution everyone else does.

I think the XCode is too old.  4.6.2 is the latest version, 4.4 is 2 major builds behind and I don’t know how well we are going to work with that old of an Xcode.

I have had this happen to me several times, it seems to happen the most when certificates are expired (like when your yearly apple developer renewal) or right after I have done an xcode update.

Kill (delete) all your certs and provision files in xcode.

Regenerate fresh ones for everything on the apple dev site

start xcode (enter organizer) and force it to refetch everything from apple.

It was most likely an Xcode issue.  I updated Xcode to the latest, and OSX to 10.8.3 as well, just for the hell of it.  Smooth sailing now, thanks.

This is confirmed working with XCode 4.6.1, OSX 10.8.2, Corona 2013.1076.

However, on my secondary machine (also a Mac and the exact same specs as above - and with the same development and distribution profiles installed), I can build for iOS Device but not for iOS Distribution:

warning: Application failed codesign verification.  The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements, or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate. (-19011)

/Users/blah/Documents/blah.app: invalid signature (code or signature have been modified)

/Users/blah/Documents/blah.app/blah: invalid signature (code or signature have been modified)

 - (null)

Why do I get this for Distribution but not for Development? The Distribution profile was created with the same bundle ID, uses the same development certificate, and they are all valid in XCode. I can build for iOS Distribution in XCode fine on both machines (for other apps, obviously).

The only thing I can think of that differs is something in KeyChain, but… can’t I rule that out since I can Distribute in XCode and Develop in Corona?

It says signature has been modified, well I haven’t modified it! 

Has Apple disclosed exactly what entries in KeyChain and Organizer are involved in code signing? If there was such a list I could compare all of them and find the differences.

Just trying to reason it out. What things could I eliminate?
