Unable to process application info.plist validation at this time due to a general error (1095)

Over the past few weeks I've been distributing beta builds of my iOS app via ad hoc distribution. Everything was working fine until this morning 8/31/2012.

I followed the usual procedure in Xcode 4.3.3:

  • Product => Archive
  • Everything builds so far so good
  • Click validate and choose the correct provisioning stuff in the wizard
  • Validation fails immediately saying "Unable to process application info.plist validation at this time due to a general error"

I've tried to validate about ten times. Everytime it's the same thing. After reading this SO post I feel confident it's an Apple problem. However I want to get this ad hoc build out to a client asap. Then it finally dawned on me: Is the validation step in Xcode necessary when just doing an ad hoc build?

I got this while trying to submit my app yesterday. To fix it, I updated the icon files in my app and updated the plist.

I was missing my Icon-72.png

Personally I does not validate IPA while ad hoc build, but do while submitting to App store. I recommend you should clean entire project using Alt + Cmd + Shift + k. Probably this will resolve your issue.

This is should not be a case with adhoc builds(I myself uploaded adhoc build today 6 hours ago). Validation is not required to build for adhoc builds. Follow the below steps to get a clean adhoc build for your client.

  • Thanks for the response. Unfortunately this didn't work when I tried it. I generated the ipa file. Then uploaded it to TestFlight. Then downloaded the app from the TestFlight email and it closes immediately after launching. – SundayMonday Aug 31 '12 at 20:12
