This ticket does not explain how to reproduce the issue, so risks being marked invalid.

A number of users have asked you to clarify your solution in your original http://developer.appcelerator.com/question/32391/ad-hoc-finally-working-"> Q&A post, and also there is a new user with the problem.

Would you minding helping them, to determine whether this bug still exists, please?

Thanks

I had this issue, but I can't remember whether it was the build that failed or the installation of the ad-hoc compiled app. I think it gave a "missing entitlements" error.

To fix, I changed builder.py to:

           # in this case, we have to do different things based on if it's
           # an ad-hoc distribution cert or not - in the case of non-adhoc
           # we don't use the entitlements file but in ad hoc we need to
           adhoc_line = "CODE_SIGN_ENTITLEMENTS=Resources/Entitlements.plist"
           deploytype = "production_adhoc"
           if not is_adhoc(appuuid):
               adhoc_line="CODE_SIGN_ENTITLEMENTS="
               deploytype = "production"
   

i.e. change the value of "adhoc_line" so that it matches the comment.

This code is present in builder.py for SDKs 1.2, 1.3, 1.3.2 but the build process has changed in 1.4 so it may no longer require fixing.

Another Q&A post that includes a solution similar to the above is http://developer.appcelerator.com/question/89391/problem-installing-to-device-itunes#195331"> this one. The bug was found in 1.5.1.

In order to understand this issue, a build.log file needs to be provided. Does anyone have one they can add?
