Can't launch iOS app developed with Delphi XE8

Question

I have created a Multi-device application with Delphi XE8 with only a button and a label that I deploy to my iPhone. I have set up all the provisioning correctly so it deploys and installs just fine but when I try to launch it the app crashes immediately. I have SDK 8.4, the Mac is OS X 10.10 and the iPhone is 8.4.1.

I looked at the following link and removed all the line feeds as suggested but that didn't help.

Does anyone have similar problems or a possible solution to why the app won't start?

You should give us more information . Have you any log entries to show ? — aleroot, Aug 24 '15 at 09:25
@aleroot Don't really know what else to give... I can't debug in the IDE since the app crashes immediately. In XCode I think one of the logs from the phone is my test app crashing but it says unknown so I don't know. — Johan, Aug 24 '15 at 09:54

Please install XE8 update 1. This fixes an issue that an application won't start on iOS if it uses pcrelib. My guess is that you're using that directly or indirectly.

I had the exact same problem with XE8, 8.3 SDK, XCode8 on a iPad running iOS9.3

The issue was carriage return line feeds in my EntitlementIOS.xml file located in my project.

In NotePad++ you can show carriage return line feeds' symbol (CR LF) in View->Show Symbol->Show all characters

Quick fix : remove carriage line return line feeds
