I recently uploaded an app to the app store and its been processing for a few days now. I went in this morning to check everything out, and on the top bar of iTunes connect, i clicked on iOS builds to see how everything was going and I got a red circle with an exclamation point in it. When I clicked on it, it says "This build is invalid". Does anyone know the cause of this?
Check your email, it tells you exactly what is wrong. In itunes connect it simply says "This build is invalid" which is kind of useless. If you check your email it will most likely be a testflight issue as you included the sdk in your build and its integrated into itunes connect now:
"TestFlight SDK - TestFlight no longer requires an SDK to enable beta testing, crash reporting and analytics. To continue using TestFlight, set up Beta Testing in iTunes Connect and remove references to the SDK from the following executables:"
I was facing the same problem. I solved it by good luck after couple of hours of struggle. This issue was due to cocoa pods. Actually I installed "Alamofire" through cocoapods versions "0.38". I updated the pods for Alamofire 3.1.2. This build successfully got uploaded to the itunes connect but was declared as invalid in itunesConnect.
This reason was Alomofire 3.1.2 required cocoapods version 0.39. But I updated it using 0.38. So it was the issue.
Fix: Normal updating cocoapods by using the cpmmand $ gem install cocoapods, and then updating alamofire would not fix the problem. You will have to : 1. Update cocoapods using $ gem install cocoapods. 2. Delete the existing pod references from your project. 3. Reinstall pods using pod install command. 4. Done
I got the same problem too. and It turns out that I archive the build with Reveal framework reference. I think that's the problem. In the pass, I made the same mistake and Xcode shows detail error info during uploading. Now it seems not.
I got the same problem too. I write a App with Objective-C and use ios-charts(is swift),and I need to support iOS7,so it is troublesome... and when I upload app to AppStore I get the problem. I submit it again ,but still the problem. then I despair to clean the project and reset the codesiganature,what... that work! I just hehele ... enter image description here
You could validate the app archive trough Xcode and get details of what is the problem. The archives are currently found under Window->Organizer. To validate it you can click the "Validate..." button under the "Upload to App Store..." button. This may help you if you didn't get an email with details for the problem as was my case.
Recently I faced the same issue on iTunes Connect and I received an email from apple regarding to TestFlight SDK that I forgot to remove from my project bundle. It says 'TestFlight no longer requires an SDK to enable beta testing' so after removing SDK clean the code, make archive again and upload. That't it!
In my case I just Drag and Drop The SDK In folder include info.plist file which is not in use. That's create the issue for me. So find the unused info.plist file and delete it from the Source code. Clean the project folder and Re upload.
