ERROR --  Cannot import distribution provisioning profile

I get an Internal Error and my Xcode crashes when I try to import my distribution provisioning profile.
Here's the message:
Internal Error
Cannot remove an observer <XCRemoteIPhone 0x25ebb00> for the key path "installed" from <XCRemoteIPhoneProvisioningProfile 0x2f75180> because it is not registered as an observer.
Stack Backtrace:
The stack backtrace has been logged to the console.

Any suggestions?
Please help! Thank you so much for your time.. I've gotten so frustrated with this whole process.

Try using iTunes to import instead. I prefer that because XCode seems to rename the provisions to something cryptic AsdfjAOSDfasdopvAMVDO.mobileprovision whereas iTunes keeps the filename unmodified YourProfileName.mobileprovision. Then if you're browsing the directory to remove a provision you know which one you're removing instead of a confusing filename.
You can test your distribution builds by generating an Ad-Hoc profile which lets you install your distribution app on devices.

  • Distribution Provisioning Profile - Device ERROR

    Hey,
    I created a Distribution Provisioning Profile, but somehow, I get an error...
    When I click Build and Go I get an alert window: The the device doesn't have provisioning profile the application was signed with. (iPhone SDK 2.2.1)
    It's strange, because I have the Development Provisioning Profile on my iPod Touch, but somehow, I can't sign it for distribution.
    Can someone tell me, what the mistake is? I created an other Distribution Provisioning Profile maybe 3 months ago, and that worked, so it is really strange, having these problems now.
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Start over...
    Did you create/download all three of these?
    • yourapp_nameprofileName.mobileprovision
    • distribution_identity.cer
    • AppleWWDRCA.cer
    Did you keychain access/approve the new distribution certs?
    Did you toss all the new k'chained d'certs onto the project?
    Did you clone the app's release configuration and rename it 'Distribution'?
    Did you select the new 'iPhone Distribution' code sign profile for both instances in the apps's build tab?
    Did you close/open the project after the above?
    Did you configure the project for device and distribution & build for release in all the right places?
    Did you include a 57X57 app icon in png format?
    Again, if the error mentions 'device', you still have a 'device' provisioning certificate mixed into the 'distribution' process at some point. Sorry, but I can't tell what you may have done to get to that point, exactly.
    In my experience, it is quicker to clean out and start over with fresh distribution certificates, repeating the entire distribution/configuration/build/upload process, step-by-step, than it is to probe for one or more 'things' that may be contributing to the problem.

  • Distribution Provisioning Profiles won't activate

    Hi there,
    I am having an issue where my ad Hoc distribution provisioning profiles are not activating,
    their status remains "Pending" for quite some time, and then changes to "invalid".
    I have followed the instructions to create my distribution certificate which was successful, and
    I am at a loss as to why I cannot get my distribution profiles validated.
    Any help with this problem would be most appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Rob

    Hi Rob, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
    I don't think I've ever seen what you described, so it's unlikely I'll be of much help. Is there any chance you reused the name of an unexpired profile? This is easy to do, since the Profile Name field of the +Create ... Profile+ form likes to complete your key strokes by filling in an existing name.
    Otherwise, you might try posting your question at the member's-only Developer Forums site under iPhone Development->Distribution->iPhone Developer Program Portal: [https://devforums.apple.com/community/iphone/distribution/portal].

  • Multiple distribution provisioning profile question

    Hi Everyone,
    As I study the app store structure, I see nothing that stops one from having multiple distribution profiles under the same distribution certificate. Is this a correct assessment? Or does the former distribution profile become disabled once a new one is created?
    OK, if I am correct it can be done. What is reason one would want multiple distribution profiles?
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    I probabky should be more clear about my problem:
    Here is my situation. I just switched machines, but I realize now that my keychain file does not contain my current distribution provisioning profile. I made the p.12 certificate file a couple days before I added the current distribution provisioning profile.
    My question, can I simply remove the old distribution provisioning profile from the developer portal and create a new one and select/join it with the same distribution certificate without changing anything else?
    And does this affect the apps that are in the store or are they only affected in that I have to rebuild with the new distribution provisioning profile in order to do updates?
    My big thing is I do not want to affect apps in the store for my client. Yet right now I cannot submit any apps because I do not have the correct distribution provisioning proile on the new machine and probably no way of getting it. I am getting the infamous "no matching profile in default keychain etc." message.
    I do have the correct developmental certificate, distribution certificate, and developmental provsioning profile.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Distribution Provisioning Profile not usable?

    When I install Distribution provisioning profile - it is disabled in Organizer window in XCode. I can not use it, there is a message "This profile cannot be installed in this device".
    Development profiles work fine, problem only with distribution ones.
    This problem was discussed here before, but there was no answer in the thread.
    Please, help, struggling for few days with it already.

    Ok, issue is resolved now.
    The problem was - i did not restart XCode after dragging the profile in.
    And, yes, it's not getting installed on the device - so unselectable/grayed out in the Organized list of profiles.

  • How to Obtain a Distribution Provisioning Profile from Apple

    hi everybody!
    I'm searching in the apple.com site where I can register me to obtain a distribution provisioning profile, can anybody help me?
    thx!

    Hi Angelo, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
    A provisioning profile is one of the documents you can obtain at the Developer Program Portal once you're a member of the program. Normally you would first register as an iPhone Developer at the iPhone Dev Center to access the free developer tools and the extensive iPhone Reference Library.
    The home page of the iPhone Dev Center includes a link to information about the iPhone Developer Program. Once you decide on the type of membership you require (e.g.: Standard Program $99; Enterprise Program $299), you can proceed to the online application form.
    Once you are accepted into the program (the waiting time may vary from less than one day to several weeks), you will obtain access to the Program Portal which provides detailed instructions on how to obtain, install and use the various documents including the provisioning profiles. Note that an iPhone developer does not normally obtain a Distribution Provisioning Profile until completing and thoroughly testing an iPhone app using one or more Device Provisioning Profiles. A Distribution Certificate and Profile is only used when building the version of your app which will be submitted for review and placed in the iTunes Store if accepted.
    Hope that helps!

  • Distribution Provisioning Profile not installing on device?

    Hi,
    When I drag my distribution provisioning profile to X-code's organizer, in order to install it on my device, it appears disable-like and I can't check the checkmark... Because of this I can't distribute my app. Any suggestions?
    Thanx,

    I am having the same problem. The profile in organizer does not get tick marked and remains gray indicating not installed on the device. Everything is working fine for the development provisioning profile. This problem only with distribution provisioning profile. Any solutions to this problem?

  • Distribution Provisioning Profile Help

    Hi,
    I have an application that I've already uploaded and is available for sale ( using a distribution provisioning profile ). However, something seems to have happened and when I view my "Build" settings I can no longer see the distribution profile in the drop down for "Code Signing Provisioning Profile"... ( along with my Ad Hoc profile as well ).
    My release build profile still shows up fine. I've double and triple checked my "Code Signing Identity" to make sure that it matches my distribution certificate name.
    Just as a side note, I also have my distribution project settings setup to use a "dist.plist" file with the correct "get-task-allow" boolean set to false ( unchecked ).
    Anyone have any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Any help would be great! Thanks!

    I have the same issue

  • New Distribution Provisioning Profile for Existing App - When Needed?

    Sorry for the confusion, but when issuing a new version of an approved app (bug fixes), is a brand new Distribution Provisioning Profile required when for the distribution build prior to uploading to Apple?
    If so are there any caveats/gotchas of which we should be aware?
    Thank you.

    No.
    Just make sure to change the version number in the plist, app info, etc. Certs are the same as long as they haven't expired on your end.

  • Downloading Distribution Provisioning Profiles

    Hi all.
    I have followed the steps to generate and download the distribution profiles for my applications (two of them), but the "Download" button on the Distribution Provisioning Profiles page of the iPhone Dev Center webpages is an "inactive" button... it won't let me click.
    Is there a set amount of time I have to wait before I can download that? I'd really like to get my app in before the distribution cutoff time today...

    Basically, yeah.
    Thanks to the previous reply, I saw that even though I had renewed previous certificates after the 2008/06/09 date, they had been invalidated, and I needed to re-validate them, and get that all working again first.
    it's all good now, and I was able to build and submit my applications.
    Thanks!

  • IPhone: Cannot select my provisioning profile - tried all suggestions

    I am attempting to load an application onto an iPod Touch. I have followed the PDF document at the iPhone Program Portal to the letter, creating a development certificate with name and e-mail address that matches my agent information, a device profile, app IDs with several variations, including com.companyname.myapp, com.companyname.*, * and myapp, and provisioning certificates (one at a time) based on these.
    Both the Apple WWDR certificate and my developer certificate are present in my keychain. It appears I have two keychains - system and login. I have loaded both certificates into one, the other or both keychains.
    In XCode, my provisioning profile appears in the organizer, and also appears on the device. In the properties for my project I have set the bundle identifier to the matching variation of the app id used with the device profile, both with and without the Apple prepended identifier. Under the Code Signing Identity I have tried the default value, no value and "iPhone Developer: FirstName LastName."
    I have removed all the components from the program portal and recreated them from scratch several times.
    No matter what the permutation, my provisioning profile does not appear under the Code Signing Provisioning Profile key. Whether this field is left as the default or the name of my profile is forced in, XCode successfully builds the project with the device as a target, but upon trying to upload reports "an unexpected error 0xE8000001 during the install phase: Verifying application." I have restarted the device multiple times, without effect. I am never asked for a password to access my keychain.
    I have read all the threads in the discussion groups on this topic, and tried their suggestions to no effect. I am using the latest version of the SDK (9M2199a), my iTunes is the latest released version (NOT the developer pre-release), the device is running the latest release version of the OS (2.0.1 - 5B108), and I am running the latest release version of Leopard (10.5.4).
    Developer support recommended I file a bug report.
    Does anybody have any further suggestions?

    1. You may have to rebuild your certificates and your provisions. Soemtimes it can be hit and miss even when followign the pdf.
    2. If you already managed to get a copy of the app on the device delete it directly from the device. Sometiems the system throws an error if it can't delete it.
    3. Certificates go in the login keys.
    4. These days you can downlaod the providsion and drag it to iTunes in dock while your phone is plugged in.
    (Have xcode off when you do this since it seems to cache data)
    5. Check the console to make sure it's checked and for any error messages (minimal info)
    6. Once you've installed the certificates and the provision shut down and restart.
    7. There are 2 places to set the provision. Select the project (top level) on the left in xcode. Do a get info. iPhone Developer: Your Name (note the space after : This needs to match EXACTLY to your certificates which shoudl show up in Keychain Utility under Keys.
    8. Once you have the Developer name then select the provision. If there's none available check mobile provisions in the library and make sure it got copied there.
    9. The other place you need to set the provision is select target on left in xcode. Get Info. Set iPhone Developer: Your Name and set the provision popup.
    10. Make sure to do a full clean and then rebuild.

  • Error when importing SAP Provisioning Framework

    Hi,
    Has anyone here successfully imported the SAP Provisioning Framework that is provided together with SP1?
    I noticed that the there are 2 different files of this SAP Provisioning Framework: one is provided automatically when installing the IDM 7.0 SP1, and the other is provided as an attachment to sap note 1106354.
    But I could not import either of them. For the previous one, I got error: <i>Could not update identity center with job '1582/DummyLinkScriptJob'.</i>
    And for the latter one, the error is: <i>Could not update identity center with job '1619/UnAssignUserFromSunOneGroup'.</i>
    Can anyboby give me some hint, where the problem could be?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Bin

    Hi Frank,
    thanks a lot for your help. Actually I did exactly the same what you mentioned in your reply. And the steps I followed could be summerised as :
    1.     Install Windows 2003 
    2.     Update Windows 2003 to SP2 , as required by SQL Server 2005
    3.     Install IIS component , as required by SQL server 2005
    4.     Install SQL Server 2005
             .Mixed-mode security
             .Not case-sensitive (default)
    5.     Install Management Console
    6.     Copy License file
    7.     Configure JVM in IC
             .Use sapjvm_5
    8.     Install JDBC driver
             .Configure JDBC driver in IC
    9.     Create IC Database:
             .mxmc-test  localhost  sa
             .mxmc-install
    10.     Create a new IC configuration
    11.     Create a new Dispatcher
                         .set as default dispatcher
    12.     Create a new Identity Store
    13.     SAP note 1106354
              .Copy files
              .Update stored procedures
              .Importing SAP-Provisioning framework
    Is there anything missing comparing to your system configuration? I did not install the workflow/monitoring components since there are not relevant with importing jobs.
    Best regards,
