originalReceipt always seem to return nil (even for restore)

Have anyone else observed this? It appears that the originalReceipt parameter is always nil, even when restoring a purchase. This is even true for iOS. Has anyone else observed this? I have tried this with both non-consumables and auto-renew subscriptions.

The reason this is important is that we are working on auto-renew subscription (without use of server), and my understanding is that we need to get the originalReceipt in order to validate it.

Attached are 2 traces, one from the original purchase, another from the restore… This is an auto-renewed subscription product.

I just tested this and I am getting Nil on both originalReceipt and originalIdentifier - in both cases.

But I am getting the receipt and it is the same both times. I guess that you should use the complete receipt instead. It could maybe be a fact that we are running in Apple’s sandbox, I am not sure?
