Build in trial

Hi, Everybody. May I build an app using Corona SDK Trial? I’m trying it but Corona crashs and I’m forcing to quit. I’m using my provisioning profile. Sorry my english. [import]uid: 40281 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 309577[/import]

Hi there :slight_smile:

You can build to test on your device with the trial but may not create distribution builds for the app store.

https://developer.anscamobile.com/downloads/coronasdk

That link contains information regarding the limitations of the trial version of Corona SDK

Thank you, Peach Pellen. I did not see the link yet but I would like to know why Corona SDK stops to work after I asks to build an app in my device. I’m working with Gamesalad engine and Cocos2D and they work fine in my device. Can you suggest a solution for the crash? Thank you again. [import]uid: 40281 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 35057[/import]

That isn’t my area of expertise, but could you tell me what error you’re getting when it crashes?

Also, try to build one of the Corona Sample Projects - you can find them in the Corona SDK folder in your Applications. See if it crashes when you do that.

Ok Peach, I will tell you step by step. I want to test SimplePool Sample in my device so I do that:
1-Open Terminal and corona simulator;
2-In Corona Simulator I open SimplePool Sample
3-After, I go “File”,“Build”,“iOS”,
4-I choose"continue trial"
5-Build for “device”
6-I choose my Code Signing identity
7-“Connecting Server”
8-Long Pause…
9-“Your application built but failed to pass Apple’s validation tests.”

Am I doing something wrong to test a sample in my device? Help please!!!

“Your application built but failed to pass Apple’s validation tests”

This is ok - it means the app built for your device for trial purposes only. The message is obviously misleading. We will address the message and generate a more friendly version of it.

So, how can I test an app in my device? or some Corona SDK sample? Can I test an app in Trial version? What’s the way? Help…Thanks

This is ok - the message means the app built for your device for trial purposes.
You can now install on your device and test.

A .app file was generated; put that on your phone. [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 35323[/import]

To be a tad more specific;

Connect your iPhone to your Mac.

With iTunes open, drag the app to the iTunes icon. (The app that is NOT zipped; two versions are produced, one zipped, one not.)

It will be added to iTunes; you can then sync it to your device.

Just in case you were confused :wink:

Thanks Peach. Now, I understand. But in my case only one file was produced. There is a white circle with a bar over the icon.

[import]uid: 40281 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 35487[/import]

Oh, very good then - just drag that to iTunes. It wont show your icon but that’s how it works when testing.

Should work fine :slight_smile: [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 35488[/import]

Hi. I did another provisioning profile to use with samples of Corona SDK but iTunes tells me that:“the application was not installed on the device because the signature is not valid”

What does it mean?

It means the signature is not valid :wink:

This isn’t related to Corona but to your certificates/provisioning profiles.

Open Xcode and choose your provisioning profile; what does it say in the box below? It should have your device name. If not, you’ve created your provisioning profile wrong and will need to carefully make a new one. [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 9577 reply_id: 36211[/import]

Hi, everyone. I had installed XCode4 and xcode3.2.6 in separate directories and I noticed that there were spaces in the folder name. Reading some posts on the forum I decided to uninstalled XCode3.2.6 and reinstall xcode4 without space in folder name. Now everything is working. Thanks to all.
