Failed app upload - "The u option must have a non-empty value"

Same problem here (Xcode 7.0.1).

Using the Application Loader v3.1 solved the problem as @agramonte suggested.

I have the same problem when uploading the build to app store using Application Loader.

My Corona build is 2015.2744. And I am using Xcode 7.0.1. And the Application loader is v3.2.

As @agramonte suggested to download Application Loader 3.1, it works now. 

I’ve asked Engineering to look into this.

Sounds like Application Loader 3.2 has some sort of issue that Apple will need to fix.

I’m not suffering from the issue but it’s possible that removing your Application Loader preferences might help (you’ll have to re-enter various things like your username and password).  In Terminal run this command:

defaults delete com.apple.itunes.connect.ApplicationLoader

If you’re running Application Loader manually (as some people have to do for a variety of reasons) then these kind of errors are outside Corona’s control and should be reported to Apple.  Not that submitting apps directly from the Simulator may be any better since the Simulator depends entirely on Application Loader which is quite flaky.

eh guy, 

have you resolve, i have the same problem :

Corona SDK Ver 2015.2731

Application Loader Ver. 3.2(845)

[2015-10-25 15:25:01 CET] <main> ERROR: The u option must have a non-empty value.

[2015-10-25 15:25:01 CET] <main> ERROR: The password must have a non-empty value.

Download the Standalone Application Loader from Apple. If you build for iOS from Corona SDK using 2731 or later, you have an option to upload to the iTunes store for you. If you don’t have the right version of Application Loader installed then you will be given a link to click on to install it.

I was seeing the same errors but was able to work around it.

With Xcode 7.0.1 and OS X 10.11 and Application Loader v3.2 I received these errors:

 

“The u option must have a non-empty value”

“The password option must have a non-empty value”

I downloaded Application Loader v3.1 from this link: https://itunespartner.apple.com/en/apps/tools

When I tried to upload the app from within the Corona build dialog, I received this console error:

 

<string>The application you have selected does not exist.</string><key>userString</key><string>The application you have selected does not exist.</string><key>protocolVersion</key><string>A1234</string></dict></plist>

END DATA

The solution was to run Application Loader v3.1 manually and submit the app with that. This has been mentioned above but it’s still a problem and maybe posting this will help other folks out.
