Xcode 6.1.1 Validation fails

Folks,


In response to https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=09222015a


We wanted to validate our Xcode 6.1.1, but it always returns (i takes a long time to validate almost 5 mintues)


spctl --assess --verbose /Applications/Xcode.app

/Applications/Xcode.app: rejected.


I know 100% sure i downloaded xcode from itunes.


Any idea if this is a known issue or does not apply to 6.1.1?


Please advice.

Accepted Answer

I'd guess it does not apply to anything below 7.0, which is the current release version, mainly because 6.1.1 was out well prior to the recent issue.

Are you using a beta version of OSX? I've run the spctl on xCode 7 which came from the

app store and get:

/Applications/Xcode.app: accepted

source=Mac App Store


By the way, why are you still running 6.1.1. That's very old.

RLKingSoftware,


No we are using GA version of OX 10.10.


We are yet to migrate to Xcode 7 which we will in the next release.

I have a similar probrem.

I have multiple versions of Xcode (6.2[6C131e], 6.3.2[6D2105], 6.4[6E35b], and 7.0[7A220] ) in my Mac (Mac mini late 2012, MacOS X 10.10.5).

These were downloaded from Mac App Store. (Before I upgrade the Xcode, I have created a copy of the existing version.)


I checked each version..

6.2 : rejected

source=obsolete resource envelope


6.3.2 : a sealed resource is missing or invalid


6.4 : accepted

source=Mac App Store


7.0 : accepted

source=Mac App Store


Today, I download Xcode6.2[6C131e] from Apple Developer and installed to the same Mac.

The result is : accepted

source=Apple System


What's different?
