I got this message after uploading a new build to Apple:
WARNING ITMS-90703: “Deprecated Xcode Build. Due to resolved app archives issues, we will be deprecating Xcode 8.3 on May 10, 2017, at which time app archives built with 8.3 will no longer be accepted by the App Store. Download Xcode 8.3.2 or newer, rebuild your app and resubmit.”
Can anyone please explain what exactly this does mean regarding the app archives?
Is this somehow affecting existing apps in the store maybe?
You will need to update your version of Xcode. This won’t affected apps in production, just new and updated ones.
Me too I already update my Xcode to 8.3.2 I still get this error - OS X 10.12.4

Our engineering team is looking in to this. We will update you when we know more.

Any update yet on this? Am still able to upload and submit, just not sure why this error message, and I am running 8.3.2 as well…
Dear developer,
We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for “Touch The Crack”. Your delivery was successful, but you may wish to correct the following issues in your next delivery:
Deprecated Xcode Build - Due to resolved app archives issues, we will be deprecating Xcode 8.3 on May 10, 2017, at which time app archives built with 8.3 will no longer be accepted by the App Store. Download Xcode 8.3.2 or newer, rebuild your app and resubmit.
After you’ve corrected the issues, you can use Xcode or Application Loader to upload a new binary to iTunes Connect.
Regards,
The App Store team
This is a warning that Apple will be making changes on May 10, 2017. As of now you can submit with Xcode 8.3. Starting on May 10 you will need to use Xcode 8.3.2 are newer. Your app should have finished processing and be submittable or usable by TestFlight.
Our engineering team is looking into the best way to solve this.
Rob
The odd thing is, I am already using Xcode 8.3.2.
We have to upgrade our build servers and that’s why it’s still thinking you’re 8.3
Rob
Totally get it now, thank you!!
I tried sending build to app store, its the same error, is this bug already fixed? this is somehow critical since apple is removing app this coming april 30 that were not updated.
Sending it to Apple should work fine even with the Warning message.
Please read the text of the message: “we will be deprecating Xcode 8.3 on May 10, 2017, at which time app archives built with 8.3 will no longer be accepted by the App Store”
That means on May 10, 2017 they will stop accepting builds built with Xcode 8.3. Until then they will accept them.
Rob
Thanks Rob, Now I know
Any update on this? I am also using Xcode 8.3.2 and Corona SDK 2017.3077 (2017.4.29). And I got the same message from Apple when I submit any app.
I expected that I will not able to submit any app starting from May 10 (which is only few days from now!).
@apps30 can you confirm when you tried and were rejected last?
Are you certain that you have Xcode 8.3.2 installed and it’s not accidentally picking up an old 8.3?
Thanks
Rob
I am sure I am using Xcode 8.3.2 (I updated it in around middle of Apr) and Corona SDK 2017.3077 (2017.4.29). What do you mean of “accidentally picking up an old 8.3”? Is it possible to upgraded to 8.3.2 but still picking with 8.3? (I don’t see the option of iOS SDK 8.3.2 when I tried to make iOS build)
Apple didn’t reject me. But I keep getting this warning message whenever I upload a build to apple. The last build I upload was yesterday and I am still getting the same warning.
Can you try with daily build 3078?
3078 is working without the warning message! Thanks!
v3078 works fine, thank you.
You will need to update your version of Xcode. This won’t affected apps in production, just new and updated ones.
