Unable to install enterprise app - This provisioni

Question

I'm setting up Jenkins to build an enterprise version of an app in order to be distributed in our internal app store.

If I archive the app in Xcode and then download the built .ipa on the phone the app is installed without any issue; but when I use the .ipa generated with Jenkins with the same private key/certificate/provisioning profile, installation fails with the following error: "Unable to Download App - App name could not be installed at this time"

If I check the console in Xcode I can see some more details errors as "This provisioning profile cannot be installed on this device"

Here is part of the log

<Warning>: ERROR: MobileInstallationInstallForLaunchServices returned nil

Anyone any idea?

Answer 1

I had also different errors like

Failed to unhide archs in executable file

as well as

error MT0000: Unexpected error

or

Error: error MT1006: Could not install the application

or

AMDeviceSecureInstallApplicationBundle returned: 0xe800801c

Now I got it running again after:

• Cleaning solution
• Deleting content of obj/bin folders
• Multiple restart of devices (Mac, iPad, PC, ...)

In general, I recommend to update you development/build environment and to also check your certificates.

Answer 2

This has nothing with provisioning. Offending line Failed to unhide archs means that you're not compiling for given architecture (armv7 or arm64 depending on the device you install to).
