Thanks for your post, I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're encountering with your entitlements file and identifiers. It can be frustrating to run into these problems, especially when you've already tried various solutions.
Here are a few additional steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue, this will cover a few more areas where common problems can arise:
Double-check Entitlements File:
-
- Verify File Format: Ensure that your entitlements file is in the correct XML format without any syntax errors. I personally like to delete all files and re-download everything from the server.
-
- Confirm Contents: Double-check that all the necessary entitlements are present in the file and that they match the requirements for your app.
-
- Compare with Working Projects: If you have other projects that are working fine, try comparing their entitlements files with the one causing issues. Sometimes, spotting differences between working and non-working files can help identify the problem.
Inspect Your Provisioning Profiles:
-
- Revoke and Regenerate: Sometimes, profiles can become invalid due to various factors. Try revoking the existing profiles in your developer account and regenerating new ones. On the screenshot I see they are already invalid.
-
- Check Distribution Type: Ensure that the provisioning profiles you're using are of the correct type (Development or Distribution) for your target.
-
- Review Expiration: Check the expiration dates of your profiles. Sometimes, an expired profile can cause issues even if it appears valid.
Review Your Developer Account:
-
- Account Status: Make sure your developer account is in good standing and that there are no issues or suspensions associated with it.
-
- Certificates and Identifiers: Double-check your certificates and identifiers. Ensure that they are all correctly linked to your account and that there are no issues with them.
Additional Checks:
- Clean Build Folder: Sometimes, issues can be caused by a corrupt build folder. Try deleting the build folder from your project and running a clean build.
- Restart Xcode: A simple restart of Xcode can sometimes flush out temporary issues.
Hope these additional steps help you find the root cause of the problem. It's often a matter of looking at the little things that can get overlooked.
