Over the air (OTA) installation fails for iOS8 app using itms-services URL

Question

For all prior versions of iOS, I\'ve used the itms-services:// URL to install test iOS apps over the air (OTA). Now, all my devices with iOS8 fail when trying to install app

Answer 1

This answer helped me to fix the issue. It seems that for iOS8 you have to include in the assets key of the manifest .plist file the display-image and full-size-image keys. They were available in Xcode 5 when saving an archive for enterprise and add-hoc deployment, but not required.

I have created a gist on github with the template for the install-manifet.plist file. The original post is available on http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1829415&seqNum=16.
