Submission to app store unable to find metadata.xml

i am also get this error. :angry:

@dorismartin24, what error are you getting and do you have your Default-568h@2x.png file (a 640px wide, 1136px tall file) in the folder with your main.lua file?   Or are you getting the metadata.xml error?

Rob

You forgot to mention how you solved your problem but even if I launch Application Loader directly I cannot select the build zip file as it is greyed out because I can load the application loader myself.

Has any one filed a bug report on this yet?  If so, do you know the bug ID #?

Thanks

This is still the case with Corona 2013.2100. I just dismiss the metadata warnings, click Deliver Your App in the Application Loader program which is still open, and I can submit it.

I had a hell of a time selecting the correct profile. I wish you would make the profile selector more manageable. I have perhaps 80-100 profiles to choose from, in a tiny font. Expired profiles and grayed out profiles could be in a third section, with developer and distribution profiles in two other sections. Since the sorting appears completely random, I’d like a live filter box. (Maybe that last option alone could make it usable again!)

Especially duplicate identical profiles, one renewed and one or more expired ones make it hard. It’s hit and hope.

I am getting this error when trying to sumbit to apple, through both application loaders.

 

        ERROR ITMS-9000: “This bundle is invalid. New apps and app updates submitted to the App Store must be built with public (GM) versions of Xcode 5 and iOS 7 SDK. Do not submit apps built with beta software.”

I tried uninstalling xcode and putting the older version on my system. Still same error. I noticed some warnings in the build text saying it could not find simulator 6.1 and will use 7.0 instead.

I’m currently downloading the 6.1 simulator.

That did not work…

What version of Corona SDK are you using?

Corona sdk version numbers  2013.1137 (2013.6.7)

I just uninstalled xcode again. Going to try with the september version xcode 5.

I didn’t think the 5.2 or 5.1 were beta previews, but I am running out of ideas.

If you are going to stay with Graphics 1.0, you need to get build 1262.  You can read about it here:

http://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/01/29/apples-ios-7-submission-requirements/

Though we just release our 3rd Graphics 2.0 build so the old graphics 1.0 builds are very behind on bug fixes and there are various vendor upgrades that have been thrown our way.  You should seriouslly consider moving to Graphics 2.0 (2189) to stay afront of these changes Apple, Google and such do that requires us to make changes.

Rob

That works, thanks Mr Miracle. I will be moving to Graphics 2 on my next app.

Hello,

I know I’m a little late to this but I’m having the same probs. I’ve read the above advice and opened the Application Loader directly in Xcode but unfortunately the same errors are coming up.

Icon. I originally had 57x57 (its been a while since I submitted) and it said I required 120x120, which I swapped. then it asks for 57x57? I’m assuming there should be two 57x57 and 120x120? and if so, they can’t both be named the same…did I miss something??

Also:

Apple’s web service operation was not successful

unable to authenticate package

Submissions must be built with public (GM) versions of Xcode 5 and iOS 7 (checked that)

Beta software? (I’m using Corona Version 2013.1175 (2013.7.30)

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks!

Hi @appolonia9.

First, build 1175 is very old.  It predates the last Graphics 1, public build and we are 3 pubiic builds into Graphics 2.0.  There have been many changes to Corona SDK and more importantly to Apple has changed their rules.  We are now building iOS 7 builds with Apple’s new rules.  You cannot submit to Apple with 1175.  If you need to stay with Graphics 1, there is a special build 1262 that you will need to submit to Apple.  However, Apple has changed the rules since 1262 was put out and if your app does not use Ads you will have to move to the latest Graphics 2.0 public build.

Because your apps can still run on iOS 6, you need to provide icons for both iOS 6 and iOS 7.  You need to follow this guide:

http://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/distribution/buildSettings/index.html#appicons

to assist you with your Icons.

Hi Rob,

OK…I’m well out of date :slight_smile: Thanks a mill and for the link.

Much appreciated

Hello again,

not sure if I’m posting this in the right place but, I’ve installed the latest build and I’m having a few problems with the orientation and scaling.

In build.settings I have:

settings = 

{

     orientation =

        {

                content = “landscapeRight",

           

    iphone =

    {

        plist=

        {

            UIStatusBarHidden=true,

            UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend = true,

            UIPrerenderedIcon = true,

            

            CFBundleIconFiles = { 

            “Icon-60.png”,

            “Icon-60@2x.png”,

            “Icon-Small-40.png”,

            “Icon-Small-40@2x.png”,

            “Icon.png”,

            “Icon@2x.png”,

            “Icon-Small.png”,

            “Icon-Small@2x.png”,

            },

        },

    },

}

and config.lua - 

application =

{

        content =

        {

                width = 800,

                height = 1200,

                scale = “letterbox”,

                xAlign = “center”,

                yAlign = “center”,

                

                imageSuffix = 

                {

                ["@2x"] = 1.5

                

                }

        }

}

the orientation is still portrait and my images are tiny, bunched up in the top, left of the screen…not sure what I’m missing or what I need to edit.

Help, please

Thanks!
