ERROR ITMS-90174: “Missing Provisioning Profile -

Question

When I upload to Application Loader I receive the following message:

ERROR ITMS-90174: "Missing Provisioning Profile - iOS Apps must contain a provisioning profile in a file named embedded.mobileprovision."

I have this contained in my app folder. When I compress no matter how obvious I make the provisioning profile, I receive this error trying to upload my app for Apple.

Answer 1

If you submit your build to the AppStore in an IPA archive format (example: Game.ipa), make sure that the Payload folder is at the root of the archive, otherwise you'll get the error: Missing Provisioning Profile - - Apps must contain a provisioning profile in a file named embedded.mobileprovision.

Answer 2

Access https://developer.apple.com/account

1 - Certificates, IDs & Profiles

2 - Provisioning Profiles

3 - Distribution

4 - Add Button

5 - Distribution -> App Store -> Continue

6 - Choose Apple Id -> Continue

7 - Select certificates -> Continue

8 - Set Profile Name -> Continue

Answer 3

To upload a archive to AppStoreConnect I had to change the default build system in xcode10 within "File > Project / Workspace Settings" and change it to the Legacy Build system.

This worked for me

Answer 4

If you are using Ionic / Cordova like I am see this announcement...

https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/407

It's just one setting, then re-run your Archive to Submit to the Apple Store like normal.

Go to "File" > "Project Settings..."

then select "Legacy Build System"

Answer 5

I redid the 'Upload to App XStore..." and it worked the second time.

Answer 6

I've faced same problem and solved by following below points.

1. For our clarification, please re-download your distribution provisional profile.
2. Please make sure you are generating ipa by setting "Generic iOS Device" in xcode.

3. Clean and build your project.
4. Place your product file in "Payload" folder and compress this folder and change .zip to .ipa

Now upload your ipa. It worked for me.

Hope this helps.
