Anybody else getting this error during the build?
ERROR ITMS-90255: “The installer package includes files that are only readable by the root user. This will prevent verification of the application’s code signature when your app is run. Ensure that non-root users can read the files in your app.”
You might have tested the installer at some point which can overwrite some files in the original bundle and change their ownership (it seems like a design prone to failure but it’s what Apple uses). The Corona SDK for OS X build process can detect certain instances of this but there are probably gaps in it’s coverage.
Generally, the simplest thing to do is to delete the built .app bundle completely (drag the .app to the trash) and rebuild and that should fix the issue.
If you continue to have trouble after that, PM me the entire log of the Corona Simulator session in which you built the .pkg file.
After going through each file and folder and checking permissions I found a couple folders that had “no access” for the everyone user and once I changed them to “read only” it worked.
Thx for your help
