`pilot upload` fails with "Missing code-signing certificate"

Question

Here's the full error message:

ERROR ITMS-90161: "Invalid Provisioning Profile. The provisioning profile included in the bundle com.appname.llc [Payload/AppName.app] is invalid. [Missing code-signing certificate]. A Distribution Provisioning profile should be used when submitting apps to the App Store. For more information, visit the iOS Developer Portal."

I think this started happening right after I updated cordova-ios to 4.3.0 but can't be 100% sure.

I tried creating new provisioning profile as this one suggests, no luck.

Answer 1

Just needed to add packageType key to build.json.

Turns out, with cordova-ios 4.3.0, they changed the structure of the build.json file:

{
    "debug": {
      "developmentTeam": "XXXXXXX",
      "codeSignIdentity": "iPhone Developer",
      "provisioningProfile": "XXXXXXXXX",
      "packageType": "development"
    },
    "release": {
      "developmentTeam": "XXXXXXX",
      "codeSignIdentity": "iPhone Distribution",
      "provisioningProfile": "XXXXXXXXXXX",
      "packageType": "app-store"
    }
  }
