CodeSign error: no certificate found in keychain for code signing identity

I've been wrestling with this for a week. Can someone help. I have followed the instructions closely to get my iphone app ready for distribution, but I cannot compile my app due to the following error:
CodeSign error: no certificate found in keychain for code signing identity 'iPhone Distribution: iPhone Developer (my name)
However, it definitely is there. In my Keychain I see the proper certificate. Furthermore, in the build file my Code Signing Identity -> Any iPhone OS Device is set to iPhone Distribution: (my name) but under "Code Signing Provisioning Profile" there are no valid choices. The distribution certificate is grayed out.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!

For the build error, "codesign error: code signing identity 'iphone developer' does not match any code-signing certificate in your keychain":
1) Open Keychain Access application.
2) Select the "Systems" tab under the Keychains sidebar and "certificates" under the Categories sidebar.
3) You should see the "com.apple.kerberos.kdc" and/or "com.apple.systemdefault" certificates with a red x in the icon.
4) Double click them and under the "trust" node change the "When using this certificate: " tab to Always Trust. You may need to restart Xcode for this to work.

No matching code signing identity found - Xcode error

Hello,
I am new to Mac and Xcode. I just want to learn Xcode and not publish any apps. Hence I did not enroll in the paid developer program.
Whenever I try to create a project in Xcode, it gives me this error - "No matching code signing identity found". If I click on "Fix Issue", it asks me to add my apple ID. I did that but I cannot add it to any team. I also tried requesting a certificate through keychain. But I am not sure on how to check the status of that.
Please pardon my lack of knowledge on this as I just a beginner. But any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

You will probably get better answers to questions like these in the developer forums. https://developer.apple.com/devforums/
Best of luck.

How can I correct this error: no matching code signing identity found

I signed up as an apple developer so I could download the tools to learn to build apps. I just installed Xcode 5.1.1, when i opened the program and created my first test project I got an error message: "no matching code signing identity found". how can i get rid of (correct) this error? I am just learning and I am not ready to join the $99 developer program yet.

Try setting Signing to None in the Target General pane.

Certificate for code signing expires soon

Hi
since several days I am getting a warning message from my OS X server telling me that the Certificate for code signing will expire soon
Certificate Expires Soon -servername.xx Signierungszertifikate für Code
The following certificate is about to expire on your server,servername.xx:
Name: servername.xx Signierungszertifikate für Code
Expiration Date: 15. Mai 2013 10:30:44 MESZ
I looked under Certificates in Server app but this certificate does not appear. It's visible only in Key Chain under System and I suppose it is one which was created automaticely when I set up the server running under Mountain Lion. How can I renew this certificate ? Thanks for help

Using Apple Mac Developer account for code signing

Has anyone been using their Apple Mac Developer account for code signing and Adobe Air desktop App?
Any hints, tips comments appreciated!

Why would I do that? I simply want to know, is the binary file I downloaded signed by with MY cert? I can determine this within reasonable doubt by answering two simple questions:
1. Is the cert that this file signed with valid (chain of trust and all that).
2. What is the name of the cert (the identity).
If the Identity is the right one (in our case, the name of our company) and it is valid, then I will trust that this binary is ours.
Maybe this will clarify my question. I guess I could rephrase this question as:
"How do I write a simple tool that will verify a file has a valid signature and will give me the signer's identity"?

Valid code signing identity not found

hi guys,
I have my mac working perfectly with my device using my dev cert (for development purposes not the distribution) and provisioning profile. I can install my apps. But if i'm using another mac, it can't find the valid code signing identity, when I'm installing the same cert and provisioning profile. What should I do to make it install in different machines? is that possible? Please help and tell me what to do. Thank you.

No option in project info window for code signing Provising profile.

Dear Developer forum,
I have one issue wth my application regarding provisional Profile.
I have installed Distribution certificate.After that I have entered all information regarding distribution provisional profile in program portal
I have got provisional certificate from portal.I have installed it
And I have also seen its entry in home/library/mobiledevices/.
But Now problem is arising at place when I am opening my project or target info window on that time in BUild->code signing option, I have only code signing endity but no code signing provisioning profile.
where I can give my distribution provising profile name
So anybody tell me howz it come????
Thanks

Looking at this page:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/manage/distribution/index.action
Make sure that you've done all the steps... "Generating a Certificate Signing Request", "Submitting a Certificate Signing Request for Approval", "Downloading and Installing iPhone Distribution Certificates", "Create and download your iphone distribution provisioning profile"...
When I went through this process, I think I forgot to do the step "Downloading and Installing iPhone Distribution Certificates"... (skipping straight to "create and download your iphone disbritution profile") as a result the provisioning profile name wasn't appearing for me to select... When I completed that step, then the provisioning profile name appeared...

How to generate single signature for code signing and timestamp

Hi we are developing Win 7 VC++ app using Crypto APIs.
Here code signing is done using Cryptsignhash() method, that generates the signature. Later for time stamping CryptRetriveTimestamp() method is used which also generate the time stamp signature. Thus we wanted to know
whether there is any single Crypto API available that can do code signing and timestamping together and shall generate single signature. At verification side it should be also possible to separate code signing and timestamp signatures prior to verification.
Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

No. Normally, you don't counter-sign the actual data - you counter-sign and time stamp your signature. You don't want to transmit the whole data (which could be a) large and b) confidential) to a third party. This is why it's a two step process.

Error - 36 Crash - Found a Solution for My Computer

I just got a new iPod Photo. Everytime I attempted to sync with iTunes, with USB cable, I got the dreaded Error (-36) crash.
After many tests, I discovered that changing to my second USB port, the sync now works.
That is, all early tests were done with the left side USB port on my 17inch G4 Powerbook. All failed.
When I used the right side USB port, synch works every time.
Who knows why, but this solved my frustration.

Of course you are correct. But at the time, I had just received the iPod and did not yet have the special firewire cable needed. I have it now and use only that - also for speed.
Thanks for the comment.

$10 Certificate not showing up for CoD:AW

I made two seperate orders for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. I have already recieved 94 points towards one order, but the other order that is pending also shows 94 points. Will the other pending order recorrect itself to show 594 points?
Thanks.

Hi moealza,
You've got it! If you were to pre-order and purchase an Xbox One copy of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and a PlayStation 4 copy of Batman: Arkham Knight, then you would be eligible to receive two $10 bonus certificates. If you were to purchase two copies of the same game though (ex: two copies of Batman: Arkham Knight), you would only receive one bonus certificate.

Code Signing Error in Xcode

I'm trying to develop programs for the iphone but I'm lost at the very start. I downloaded a sample from apple's site and opened it in xcode and worked great in the simulator however when I try to build it for my actual iPhone, it comes up with an error:
"CodeSign error: no provisioning profiles found for code signing identity 'iPhone Developer'
Any ideas?

Code signing cert error using Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer

Steps to fix this error on code signing adobe air using .p12 cert from Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer
a. Open Firefox and browse to https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm
b. On the middle of the page, download -
DigiCert Assured ID Code Signing CA-1
Valid until: 10/Feb/2026
Serial #: 07:F4:73:6F:AF:EF:40:8A:1F:66:40:F2:65:D1:0A:C1
Thumbprint: B170A10819BEA936905D719E643399783E1F4567
Download
c. Install the cert in Firefox
d. Once done, export again the code signing cert from digicert, through (click Firefox -> Preferences -> View Certificates -> HIghlight the digicert code signing cert -> click Backup)
e. Done, the newly exported file should now have the valid certificate chain and that should fix the error "Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer"
Even though this is from Digicert, this should also work for other Certificate Authority providers assuming you download your provider's root cert for code signing.

Reigner S. Yrastorza

[iPhone] Certificate found when no name given, but provisioning not

I haven't done any iPhone programming for two months or so. I'm also using a different device now and don't have access to the previous one for testing (it was replaced by Apple).
So yesterday I created a provisioning profile for the new phone and downloaded my certificate again. The certificate no longer shows up under "My Certificates" in the keychain, but that seems to be the way it should be according to the screenshots in the docs on the portal page.
Now my problem is that when I only enter "iPhone Developer" in the code signing identity, it is found and I can pick the new provisioning profile from the drop-down list right below. But then, the code signing fails when I do a build. When I add my name, it doesn't find the certificate and it doesn't show me any provisioning profiles. I tried that several times, and even copied&pasted the name of the certificate from the keychain.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Codesign with Startssl certificate

Hi,
I have a code signing certificate from startssl.com
The certificate works with other platform (java, VBA...)
I'm trying to codesign an app
codesign -s "My name" myapp.app
If I use an own create certificate, it works, if I use the Startssl certificate I obtain
myapp.app/: signature too large to embed
Any solution would be usefull
Regards

Hi,
Had the exact same thing happen to me today. Luckily, a friend pointed me to the source code of the codesign utility (and related libraries):
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/libsecuritycodesigning/libsecuritycodesigning-36924/lib/
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/securitysystemkeychain/securitysystemkeychain-36515/src/
We found out that you can override the size allocated for the signature by passing --signature-size to codesign.
A size of 6400 worked for my StartSSL cert.
I haven't yet figured out why this happens, but I know that StartSSL has an intermediate CA specifically for code signing certs. ("StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Object CA" for the Class 2 certs)
Perhaps it doesn't correctly consider the size of intermediate certs when determining the size it should allocate?
