I am having trouble submitting my newest app update with Xcode 8 GM. I updated my iPhone and watchOS app in this update.

When trying to submit I get the following error:

iTunes Store operation failed. Invalid Code Signing Entitlements. Your application bundle's signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported on iOS. Specifically, value 'QX3TDZXXXX.AppName' for key 'application-identifier' in 'Payload/AppName.app/AppName' is not supported. This value should be a string starting with your TEAMID, followed by a dot '.', followed by the bundle identifier.

I set signing to automatic by checking "Automatically manage signing" in Xcode. Everything looks fine to me.

After searching for a solution everywhere I tried to change the Code Signing Identity in Build Settings to iOS Distribution. That also gives me an error right away:

AppName has conflicting provisioning settings. AppName is automatically signed for development, but a conflicting code signing identity iPhone Distribution has been manually specified. Set the code signing identity value to "iPhone Developer" in the build settings editor, or switch to manual signing in the project editor. Code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'iOS 10.0'

I also:

  • cleaned project
  • restarted Xcode
  • rebooted my Mac
  • revoked my distribution certificate

Did someone else have a similar problem and knows how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

What helped me was:

I unchecked "Automatically manage signing" and then check it on again. After that Xcode told me it would reset the settings to the default and after that it finally worked.
