2 months ago Problem solved. After trying so many different things and given the time it takes to test anything (upload, wait for validation...) I cannot be 100% sure but I believe it is about making sure I do not use the same entitlements for main app and other files (I need additional entitlements so cannot use default ones):
osxSign: {
identity: process.env.IDENTITY_MAS_CODE,
provisioningProfile: './build/MAS.provisionprofile',
optionsForFile: (filePath: string) => {
let entitlements = './build/Entitlements.mas.child.plist'
if (filePath.endsWith('YOURAPP.APP')) {
entitlements = './build/Entitlements.mas.main.plist'
}
return {
hardenedRuntime: true,
entitlements: entitlements
};
},
},

I am posting https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/41927 here feeling it may very be osx-sign specific.

Also made sure that the only difference between a crashing MAS build and a working Darwin build is the sandbox entitlement.I open the mainWindow with the following options:
Tested both with
sandbox:trueandsandbox:false(default).Added some logs to make sure no other code was interfering.
Also tested a build with an early
app.disableHardwareAcceleration();but that did not change anything.Actual Behavior
Apple to sign and upload build to App Store Connect. Then after install from TestFlight, application crashes with following log:
Not sure what to do from here.

Additional Information
Using electron-forge with vite-plugin to build.
Also adding the
com.apple.security.app-sandboxentitlement to a working Darwin build makes it crash immediately on launch with just:By adding
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('in-process-gpu')I can get rid of the GPU crash (not sure about side effects though) but then I get in an infinite loop of:Also Created a blank project using instructions from https://www.electronforge.io/templates/vite:
