IPA file is not working when installed by Ad-Hoc


I'm looking to get our first revision of our mobile app on App Center for our QA team and I'm getting stuck on the iOS deployment.

I've read this and read that and read this and no matter what my app is not installing correctly on my phone.

when appcenter installs the app on my iphone I see it trying to install it and an app is there (even though its not picking up my icon for some reason) and clicking on the app does nothing.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong at all. I made the proper certs and stuff on the developer portal and added my device to both the appcenter website and to my apple developer portal so at this point I'm at a lost on what I'm doing wrong.

any sort of clarity would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: so looking at the logs I get the following message:

Unable to perform action "Promote" on com.mydomain.demoapp because is it not currently supported

All action attempts failed for placeholder: com.mydomain.demoapp

I have no idea what that means hope someone can tell me.


Solution

  • I figured out my problem, I had a bad entitlements.plist entry and that was throwing off the install, removed it and it worked.
