Same error even I already created a new project using sidekick. Please help.

Hey everyone, Thank you for reporting this issue. We've reproduced it and we've investigated the case - the problem is caused by change in Apple's API for the Free Developer program. We'll need some time to investigate it further and see how to resolve this issue. Please, excuse us for the caused inconvenience.

Hi, thanks for looking into this. Any updates?

Nickmanbear commented 4 years ago

Haha. I got excited when it said there was an update. But then it was just a better looking error message.😅 I take this won't be an easy fix and might take a little while?

edmundpf commented 4 years ago

Any updates on this? Looks like windows users just can't do cloud builds without this functionality, currently stuck on deployment of an app since I can't test for iOS

robomaniac commented 4 years ago

Is there a workaround for this until the bug is fix? Do I open a MAC and generate the certificate and provision that I then copy to my PC?

EDIT I tried on MAC and same problem. I just notice that the issue occur on a MAC. I initially thought the problem was for PC only. The problem is the Apple's API for the Free Developer program which does not care about the hardware.

gzimgashi commented 4 years ago

Any Update?

poldixd commented 4 years ago

Maybe it's because 2FA?

mayerlench commented 4 years ago

Hey, is there any workaround for this? Without the autogen feature it doesnt seem possible to work off a windows machine with a free apple account

hasanbildirici commented 4 years ago

Is there any progress with this issue yet?

vikasacharya16 commented 4 years ago

Still Sidekick showing this error today. Is there any update on this issue.

No, right now the only way to develop for IOS on a windows machine is to use cloud builds with a payed developer license. I spun up a MacOS virtual machine on my windows machine and i am able to develop using the free IOS developer account

vikasacharya16 commented 4 years ago

@mayerlench Can you post the exact steps to achieve what you did. So, that it will be very help full which might reduce the burden of researching. Currently i started exploring aws virtual machine to build ios app. but I didn't achieved it yet and wasting time in lot of researching.

pollyolly commented 4 years ago

@mayerlench

What MACOS for VM you use? can you share it?

mayerlench commented 4 years ago

In order to use the free apple developer license you need to be on MacOS. You can achieve this by using an apple computer or running MacOS virtually on a windows machine.

I dont recommend to do this if you arent familiar with virtual machines. Heres a link https://bit.ly/31ezWpX

Once you are running MacOS you will need to install all the nativescript dependencies and download Xcode to provision the free developer certificate for you app

While this works, its not an ideal way of developing. It can be heavy and slow. Personally i got a paid dev account and use nativescript cloud builds

Hi @rosen-vladimirov have you got any update on this issue?

mcasto commented 4 years ago

@mayerlench, I'm running on a Mac and I have this issue too, so I'm not sure setting up a Mac VM will resolve it.

Have you provisioned the certificate in xcode?

mcasto commented 4 years ago

Shouldn't Auto Generate provisioning profile & cert within NativeScript Sidekick do that? Or are you saying I need to do something extra in Xcode?

mayerlench commented 4 years ago

You need to open the project in xcode and theres a button there to provision the certificate but this must be done through xcode

mcasto commented 4 years ago

Interesting. I haven't used NS in ~1.5 years. At that point, I could generate the cert in NS Sidekick & it worked. Apparently, things have changed a little :D

Yup. The ability to to provision through sidekick has been broken for a while as apples api no longer supports because shame be it on them to make developers lifes a little easier 😅

mcasto commented 4 years ago

Right? I love my Mac & iPhone (though, since Jobs's death they seem to have slipped a bit in some areas), but, as a developer ... { groan }

I did the same. How to get your ipa loaded to a device for testing? Thanks!
