TestFlight rejecting build "get-task-allow" error

So I'm using testflightapp to distribute an ad-hoc build.

But I keep getting this message: 'Invalid Profile: distribution build entitlements must have get-task-allow set to false.'

I don't have an entitlements file for my App, so XCode automatically produces one and includes it in the build. I unzip the App.ipa and open up the embedded.mobileprovision file and look at the entitlement dictionary.

It looks like this:

<key>Entitlements</key>
<dict>
    <key>application-identifier</key>
    <string>E9PBH9V8TB.*</string>
    <key>get-task-allow</key>
    <false/>
    <key>keychain-access-groups</key>
    <array>
        <string>E9PBH9V8TB.*</string>
    </array>
</dict>

Anyone else experienced this before? I don't understand why I'm getting this error.

Turns out the Code-Signing Identity in my build configuration didn't match the one I selected when I saved the archive for Ad-Hoc distribution.
