codesign verification issue

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I’ve seen other posts on this topic, but nothing that seems to resolve my issue. I am trying to build my first app to upload through the application loader. When I build I get the following:

warning: Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate. (-19011)
Executable=/Users/randythomas/Desktop/buildAWord.app/buildAWord
codesign_wrapper-0.7.10: using Apple CA for profile evaluation

I have deleted all of my certificates, rebooted my computer and recreated the certs on both the apple website and my computer, (6 times) and I have the exact same problem. I’ve followed 3 different set of instructions on how to make my certificates and how to put them on my computer and I’ve read several posts about build.settings from “do this…” to don’t put “CFBundleIdentifier at all”. I have tried (for the last 7 hours) every combination I can think of and I still can’t see what I’m doing wrong. Are there any through instructions on how to get the certificates and build?

I am so lost and frustrated. Does anyone have any advice? [import]uid: 48122 topic_id: 19197 reply_id: 319197[/import]

I know it’s a bit tacky, but I’m going to reply to myself. I did finally get it (going on 9.5 hours for this part) and this is what I had to do (of any other newbies like me):

1 - stop
2 - breathe
3 - breathe a little more
4 - actually print out the first 4 pages of the thread http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2011/03/13/build-app-store by mrgoose (print it out, don’t read it on the screen)
5 - delete every keychain and cert relating to the project and do what he says step by step
6 - breathe
7 - sigh
8 - smile [import]uid: 48122 topic_id: 19197 reply_id: 74065[/import]
