VPN on OSX - entitlement is not allowed

Question

I've configured a vpn (packet tunnel) on OSX, but I can't start it because of an entitlement problem(I already did it on iOS, but on OSX it's not running, although the entitlements suppose to work on both iOS and OSX)When I run the app, it's imediatly crashes with the error:... because its use of the com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension entitlement is not allowedaccording to this error, the containing app is not allowed to use the entitlements - but why??But if in the project settings, at the containing app, I remove the path to the entitlement file at Code Signing Entitlements, the app won't crash, but not start the VPN.To check what's the problem, I ran at the terminal    codesign -d --entitlements :- CatoClient.appand   codesign -d --entitlements :- CatoClientExtension.appexIn both of them I can see&lt;array&gt;&lt;string&gt;packet-tunnel-provider&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;app-proxy-provider&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;content-filter-provider&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/array&gt;Any Help would be appreciated

And in the entitlement file, I have this too:&amp;lt;key&amp;gt;com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension&amp;lt;/key&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;array&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;string&amp;gt;packet-tunnel-provider&amp;lt;/string&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;string&amp;gt;app-proxy-provider&amp;lt;/string&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;/array&amp;gt;

The Network Extension entitlements you use have to be whitelisted by the provisioning profile, and the symptoms you’ve describe indicate that this is not happening.  Two questions:Please confirm that you’re building for Mac App Store.  Network Extension providers are only supported on the Mac App Store.You need to check that your provisioning profile has the entitlements set correctly.  You can find instructions for doing this in Debugging Entitlement Issues.Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” Apple Developer Relations, Developer Technical Support, Core OS/Hardware let myEmail &#x3D; "eskimo" + "1" + "@apple.com"

Network Extension providers are only supported on the Mac App Store."I&#x27;m going to release it to the Mac App Store, but for now my provision profile created for Mac App DevelopmentAnd thanks again for your quick replies!
