I added a vanilla Today Application Extension and run with the new scheme created by XCode.
After it finishes building ("Build Succeeded" pops up), it failed straight away with this error:

Installation Failed
Invalid argument

I've been trying to find answers for 6 hours now, no luck so far. Please help!
