with Xcode 8 no valid 'aps-environment' entitlement string found

Question

I installed Xcode 8. Since then I am getting

application:didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:, Thread [{number = 1, name = main}] error [Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3000 "no valid 'aps-environment' entitlement string found for application" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=no valid 'aps-environment' entitlement string found for application}]

I tried downloading and double-clicking provisioning files again. It did not work.

I did check that push notifications are enabled for provisioning files.

I even logged out of Xcode account and logged in again...did not help.

Which setting I might be missing for Xcode8/ios10?

It was working for Xcode 7.3/ios9/8.

Please help.

ok...I had to explicitly enable push notifications in capabilities tab — GJain, Sep 26 '16 at 22:14

One more thing... Check that you enable Push notifications for PROPER configuration. I've wasted around an hour trying to figure out what's going on with pushes on DEBUG with permanent NO APS entitlement. But pushes was enabled ONLY in RELEASE.
