HI Folks,

I preparing a new release of an existing product. After I codesign the app bundle, codesign and spctcl give successful test results. However, if I download the app (in a DMG), copy it into the test system's /Applications folder, and trty to run it, Gatekeeper steps up and says that it's from an unrecognized developer.

spctl --verbose --assess /Applications/BRU\ Server/BRU\ Server\ Console.app
/Applications/BRU Server/BRU Server Console.app: accepted

codesign -dvv /Applications/BRU\ Server/BRU\ Server\ Console.app

Any ideas as to why this app would fail on a new system?

Did you make sure that you signed the app using your Developer ID code signing identity? You have to archive the app first and export it from there.

Strange, your reply didn't show up in my activity and I only found this from "More like this".

I'm tracking this down and now I'm not allowed to generate a non-MAS Developer ID.

Hello again TOLIS Tim,

Can you describe this in more detail? Is there some big "Not Allowed" error message that pops up when you attempt to create a Developer ID? Are you doing this in the portal or Xcode? The portal requires more manual steps than Xcode does. Xcode can be confusing and can create duplicates if you aren't really sure what you, and Xcode, are doing.
