Hi there, I’m trying to build my app on with the Xcode 9 GM stack. It runs the tests and builds the archive fine. Here is the error I get: ``` ▸ Archive Succeeded Using export options Generating export options using export-method input: ad-hoc Failed to create target code sign properties mapping, error: failed to run ruby script, output: {"error":"undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass\n[\"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:36:in `block (3 levels) in read_code_sign_map'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:30:in `each'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:30:in `block (2 levels) in read_code_sign_map'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:27:in `each'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:27:in `block in read_code_sign_map'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:25:in `each'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:25:in `read_code_sign_map'\", \"/var/folders/90/5stft2v13fb_m_gv3c8x9nwc0000gn/T/ __ruby-script-runner__ 154720919/script.rb:57:in `

A new Xcode Archive step was just released. Did you try that? If you’d still get the issue with the new version please share your build url via the [bitrise.io](http://bitrise.io) onsite chat support. ---

Here’s what I did so far. I deleted Xcode 8 and 9 from my Mac. I also deleted provisioning profiles. I installed Xcode9 only and sync(download) provisioning profiles with Xcode9. I created .p12 and provisioning profiles with `bash -l -c "$(curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitrise-tools/codesigndoc/master/_scripts/install_wrap.sh)"` and upload this to WORKFLOW | CODESIGNING. (I deleted previous files). And deleted expired and team provisioning. Now I got this error message. > If you can’t find the reason of the error in the log, please check the raw-xcodebuild-output.log > The log file is stored in $BITRISE\_DEPLOY\_DIR, and its full path > is available in the $BITRISE\_XCODE\_RAW\_RESULT\_TEXT\_PATH environment variable > Archive failed, error: exit status 65 So I open the log and found this. > Code Signing Error: No profiles for ‘com.surfline.surfapp’ were found: Xcode couldn’t find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching ‘com.surfline.surfapp’.

To find a working setting, I turned off the setting and manually set provisioning and identities. I also set `EXPORT_OPTION` from `app-store` to `auto-detect` in WORKFLOW setting. This setting worked. But I really need to set `Automatically manage signing` on. I’m still digging into this issue. ---

Based on: `xcodebuild -h` output: Allow xcodebuild to communicate with the Apple Developer website. For automatically signed targets, xcodebuild will create and update profiles, app IDs, and certificates. For manually signed targets, xcodebuild will download missing or updated provisioning profiles. **Requires a developer account to have been added in Xcode’s Accounts preference pane.** Regarding to: > [@trick14](#): > > This setting worked. But I really need to set Automatically manage signing on. I’m still digging into this issue. You have several options to keep `Automatic` code singing setting in your project: 1, Automatic code signing on bitrise - use codesingdoc to export your certificate and profiles _these profiles will be the xcode generated ones, so they need to be updated periodically on bitrise, since automatically managed profiles are expiring_ - use `auto-detect` export method in xcode-archive step. _This way both the archive and ipa export process will use Xcode managed singing files_ 2, Force Manual singing on bitrise - generate the desired singing files on the developer portal and upload them to bitrise - force manual code singing by adding: `CODE_SIGN_STYLE="Manual"` to `Additional options for xcodebuild call` input. - force the development team, code sign identity and profile (`Force code signing with Development Team`, `"Force code signing with Code Signing Identity` and `Force code signing with Provisioning Profile` step inputs - use `auto-detect` export method in xcode-archive step. _This way you force xcodebuild to use the uploaded code sign files_ ---

@godreikrisztian Thanks for response. I have already tried everything before and so far the only way to make build works is set provisioning profile manually. I used `codesigndoc` and uploaded files to bitrise. I set `Automaically manage signing` in Xcode. I also used `auto-detect` option in export method. But I got this error. > If you can’t find the reason of the error in the log, please check the raw-xcodebuild-output.log > The log file is stored in $BITRISE\_DEPLOY\_DIR, and its full path > is available in the $BITRISE\_XCODE\_RAW\_RESULT\_TEXT\_PATH environment variable > Archive failed, error: exit status 65 And below is the `raw-codebuild-output.log`. > Check dependencies > Code Signing Error: No profiles for ‘com.fishtrack.app’ were found: Xcode couldn’t find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching ‘com.fishtrack.app’.

So where are we at with this issue? I just retried my Bitrise build with Xcode 9 GM using 2.3.0 of the Xcode Archive & Export step. I’m not using any of the “Force code signing with…” options. It no longer gives the original “Failed to create target code sign properties mapping” error, which seems like progress. - When “Select method for export” is set to `auto-detect`, it builds successfully but only signed with the Developer certificate - When “Select method for export” is set to `ad-hoc`, it fails with: ```auto ▸ Archive Succeeded Exporting ipa from the archive... Using export options Generating export options using export-method input: ad-hoc xcode major version > 9, generating exportOptions with provisioningProfiles node project does not specify profile for: com.solium.SwPtpMobile, seraching for installed profile for export method: ad-hocs Failed to find matching provisioning profiles for: $MY_REDACTED_BUNDLE_ID ``` - When “Select method for export” is set to `app-store`, it fails with a similar error: ```auto ▸ Archive Succeeded Exporting ipa from the archive... Using export options Generating export options using export-method input: ad-hoc xcode major version > 9, generating exportOptions with provisioningProfiles node project does not specify profile for: com.solium.SwPtpMobile, seraching for installed profile for export method: app-stores Failed to find matching provisioning profiles for: $MY_REDACTED_BUNDLE_ID ``` Note the odd plural on “ad-hocs” and “app-stores”. Do I need to do something else to get the Ad Hoc and App Store builds to work? (I do have valid provisioning profiles for both of those in my Bitrise app \> Code Signing section). Thanks! ---

It seems that there’s an issue in the Xcode Archive step that is causing these errors. We’re working on the fix and will post back here once the new step version is deployed. **In the meantime the workaround is detailed in this blogpost** : [https://blog.bitrise.io/new-export-options-plist-in-xcode-9](https://blog.bitrise.io/new-export-options-plist-in-xcode-9) Only important thing I’d add to the post is: when you do the export from Xcode, **don’t select the Automatic option** (see screenshot below). ![05](https://sea2.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/bitrise/original/1X/0d5663b1a29171cf17d52d5f919cbd7bd37fbb2c.png) ---

We’ve released a new version ([2.3.1](https://github.com/bitrise-io/steps-xcode-archive/releases/tag/2.3.1)) of Xcode Archive & Export for iOS step. This version contains a lot of fixes related to the new provisioningProfiles node in the exportOptions.plist. Please update to this version and let us know how it goes!

I’m still seeing a problem with 2.3.1. My developer certificate expired yesterday, so it’s possible I’m doing something wrong. I re-ran the codesignexport and uploaded the new certs. I built it with export method of ad-hoc. Here’s what I get: ``` Exporting ipa from the archive...

In the certificate-and-profile-installer step it installs the profile that’s references above, c6c2c840-9e0d-4262-b3d4-fc5239e7e44e. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
