Renewed provisioning profile still shows as expired

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I hate developing for Apple! My provisioning profile on my iPad expired so I renewed it (took a while to figure out how to do that), rebuilt my application making sure I used the the new profile, but when I try the app on the iPad I still get the error “app name” cannot be opened because the provisioning profile has expired. I checked the x-code organizer window and it shows my iPad as an included device for the new profile.

I have developed for other platforms and have never seen anything like the hoops you have to jump through to develop for Apple. Heck, I’m trying to test this on my own device! What’s it going to be like trying to actually create a production app? [import]uid: 6397 topic_id: 2082 reply_id: 302082[/import]

Remove the old provisioning file form your IPad via the XCode-Organizer and drag/drop the new one on it. [import]uid: 5712 topic_id: 2082 reply_id: 6165[/import]

Ended up having to update the XCode SDK. Once I did that both profiles showed up in the organizer with the old one marked with a red X. Once I deleted that profile everything worked. I assume that’s what you meant Mike. The problem was the old SDK didn’t show both profiles. [import]uid: 6397 topic_id: 2082 reply_id: 6171[/import]

That error generally occurs when you have an expired profile on the device and you add a new one without removing the old one. For some reason it still uses the expired profile.

I think having to always update your Xcode SDK is Apple’s way of moving you forward. :slight_smile:
