Unable to distribute with Xcode 10

[neofuture]

When trying to push a project to app store with Xcode 10 i get the following new error

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

[janpio]

Push how?
Who exactly outputs that error when?
How did you build the project? (Do you have the complete build output?)
Did this exact project work before upgrading to Xcode 10?

[neofuture]

Project was opened in Xcode 10, built then Distributed from the Xcode10 organiser, the project worked fine with Xcode 9 without any changes. i dont have build output as i have to use Xcode to build

[janpio]

Right now we only have workaround for builds with the CLI published over at #407. You might need some instructions on how to get a Xcode only project to work. Someone will have to look into this.

[neofuture]

Yes, i have just built with CLI and it built and ran in simulator but i need to distribute to the app store and cant without Xcode, so cant put anything onto test flight.

[neofuture]

I was going to try and use the CLI and create the app store package and use application loader ive tried

cordova build ios --buildFlag="-UseModernBuildSystem=0" --packageType="app-store"

but i only get the normal .app file in the emulator folder which application loader will not deal with

Try cordova build ios --release --device --buildFlag="-UseModernBuildSystem=0" --packageType="app-store"

Facing the same issue.

ionic cordova build ios --buildFlag="-UseModernBuildSystem=0" allows you to make the build. However not able to submit it to the store. It gives the same error as @neofuture mentioned

@dpogue even this does not solve the signing issue

[neofuture]

That created the IPA fine, but... application loader can not connect to the app store anymore so thats that one scuppered, i can see a lot of frustration from todays Xcode 10 auto update as no one will now be able to publish there app

[neofuture]

Temporary Fix: I went back to Xcode 9.4.1 from he developer downloads at developer.apple.com, reopened the project with this and was able to upload to the app store.

For notice: I was previously building the project with Xcode Beta (i like the black theme) and was using Xcode 9 for uploading to app store. i have no problems building in Xcode 10 my only issue is distribution to the app store.

[mlegenhausen]

I used fastlane deliver today for uploading two apps build with Xcode 10 without problems. The only thing that needed to be changed so the signing was working was to change the ProvisioningStyle to Manual in all project.pbxproj files. Then you can set your codeSignIdentity and provisioningProfile via your build.json.

sh.sed(
    '-i',
    /ProvisioningStyle = Automatic/,
    'ProvisioningStyle = Manual',
    'platforms/ios/**/project.pbxproj'
  );

@neofuture i was able to submit app via xcode but now instead of wildcard i had to create an individual provisioning profile for each app. However after that everything worked as expected.
