I'm invited to a team to build an in house app. I'm granted as a team admin in Apple Developer Portal. The problem is that when I want to export the achieved app to a .ipa, it shows the message "Wildcard App IDs can not be used to create In House provisioning profiles. Please use an Explicit App ID." as the following screenshot. At the beginning, I login to Xcode/Preference/Account and download all provisioning profiles. Then I tried to login another account (who is able to export the .ipa) on Xcode/Preference/Account. Both trial lead to a same error message. Then I reset all my certificates and provisioning profiles on developer portal but in vain. The interesting thing is that there's always a wildcard app id "*" on the developer portal, I tried to remove it manually but it comes back every time when I try to export the in house app.

I also tried the answers Xcode 7.2: Failed to Locate or generated signing assets, Wild Card App IDs can not be used to create In House Provisioning Profiles and this one XCode export app, wildcard error , nothing happened.

Any idea? Thanks for reading my question. I've already spend two days on this issue..... Screenshot1

  • Just try to refresh the provisional profiles in the keychain and try again – Jobins John Mar 02 '16 at 04:29

    Have you created an explicit App ID under identifiers, and then generated a provisioning profile using that App ID in Developer Center? – sschale Mar 02 '16 at 04:58
  • @sschale Yes, there's always a explicit id in the developer center. I used it to generate a provisioning profile. But once i try to export the ipa, there would be a new wildcard id "*" created automatically. – Neo Mar 02 '16 at 11:10
  • @JobinsJohn I tried it but still the same :( – Neo Mar 02 '16 at 11:11
  • @Neo Can you check the validity of the certificate and profiles in the keychain. Also check if there are any duplicate certifictes, ie by the same name – Jobins John Mar 02 '16 at 11:20
  • @JobinsJohn I remove all invalid & duplicated certificates and provisioning profiles, then I did it over, the "Wildcard... " error is still there. I found that there's a iPhone Developer certificate named by the other team member is automatically generated in my keychain, not sure if it matters. – Neo Mar 02 '16 at 18:59

Xcode unable to create distribution builds for App Store submissions or Enterprise apps.

This issue occurs when the expired WWDR Intermediate certificate is present in both the System keychain and Login keychain within the Keychain Access application.

To resolve the issue, first download and install the renewed certificate.

Next, in the Keychain Access application, select the System keychain.

Select 'Show Expired Certificates' in the View menu and then delete the expired version of the Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate Authority Intermediate certificate.

Your certificates should now appear as valid in Keychain Access and be available to Xcode. This issue is resolved in OS X El Capitan v10.11.4 beta.
