Archive in Xcode appears under Other Items

问题:

I am trying to submit an App to iTunes Connect using the Archive option. Building for a Generic iOS Device it usually shows up under iOS Apps in the Organizer. However, now it shows up under 'Other Items' without a version and idea tidier.

The last time I did a build is the 28th of October, and I don't know of anything that can have caused this apart from the addition of the ADAL Xcode project (as a project) and small bug fixes I performed.

The reason I added the ADAL Xcode project to my App Project that when just including the Framework it didn't work in the Simulator. Adding the Framework builds it correctly.

But even now when removing the ADAL project and added the old pre-build framework it still ends up under Other Items. Any pointers what could have caused this? I am using Xcode 9.1.

回答1:

The problem for me was that I set the "Skip Install" in the "Build Settings" of the Watch App target to "No". The problem was solved once I changed that to "Yes"

回答2:

We had same issue with our iOS application. After wasting some time for random actions, we compared broken archive with one of the older ones. All of them usually are here:

~/Library⁩/Developer⁩/Xcode⁩/Archives⁩

It turned out that newer archive contained a couple of extra subfolders in Products, while older versions had just Applications there.

That was a side effect of another change in build configuration, so we fixed it.

For easy understanding just follow the image and delete the duplicate target from the selected Scheme.

Click the target on the top left (next to > Generic iOS Device/List of the simulator) then go to Edit Scheme > Build > Removing the duplicate targets from there and leaving only a single one.

I hope that helps.

Thanks

For all your framework projects (if any), set Skip install to YES. Then, set Skip install to NO for the main project target. Finally, under Build Phases for any framework projects, under the Headers section, drag and move any files under Public to Project.

Try archiving again after all these steps.

For those googling– we had the same issue as above. Turns out whenever the archive's Products/ folder has something strange going on inside it, XCode thinks the archive isn't an iOS application. In our case, there were 2 targets being built in the same archive scheme and so 2 apps were showing up in Products/.

The way to fix this was to click the target on the top left (next to > Generic iOS Device) then go to Edit Scheme > Build > Removing the duplicate targets from there and leaving only a single one.

Another way to fix this is to set the Skip Install to YES for a target to not install it into the archive (see @RawMean's answer above).

Hope this helps someone save some grief.

In my case I had to remove old archives, then remove my app target and create it again, run pod install, after this I was able to submit my app to AppStore, and app moved from "Other items" to "iOS Apps".

回答7:

In my case problem was I don't have a path for my Info.plist in my project settings for a release build. Build Settings > Packaging > Info.plist File.

Wrong

Correct

回答8:

If you've been able to build successfully recently and none of the other answers are applicable, you may need to reboot your machine. Cleaning, pod install, restarting Xcode, checking the scheme and build settings all had no impact.

With no other changes, my project built successfully after a reboot under Xcode11.

I faced with this problem.. whenever I archive it is listed in other items not in aps... and I reliaze the app name were different... I edit schme name to orjinal one and problem fixed

回答10:

Another issue I ran into using Xcode 11.4, my app archive was also ending up in Other Items. After scrubbing back and forth through git history, I found the issue (as weird as it is) and solution.

Info.plist had the Bundle version string set to $(MARKETING_VERSION), but after changing it to the raw version number 1.0.7 then the app was correctly archived to the iOS Apps list.
