Native Packaging Issue -Platform :iOS not working

[gopikumar]

Hi all,

I am trying Native iOs packaging referring API Docs.

But I am getting issus with it.

{
      "versionString":"1.0",
      "applicationName":"App",
      "applicationId":"com.aaa.App",
      "inputPath":"sample/myFolder",
      "outputPath":"sample",
      "iconName": "icon.png",
      "configuration":"Debug",
      "platform":"iOS", 
      "deviceType":"iPhone",
      "orientations": [
                "portrait",
               "landscapeLeft",
              "landscapeRight",
              "portraitUpsideDown"
     ]
}

when i use platform : iOSSimulator it working fine with simulator.

when i change platform to iOS it is showing packaging successfully with the error below and not signing the package.

The application was successfully packagedAssertion failed: (type_ == stringValue), function asCString, file src/json_value.cpp, line 679.

Am I missing anything. help needed

You don't have a certificatePath or certificateAlias config.

I use the same process to build a default app.
To reproduce: sencha -sdk /path/to/sdk generate app MyApp/path/to/MyApp

Under MyApp, run: sencha app build native, getting error and generating a packaged My App, failed to install on iPhone.
The trace

[INF] Packaging your application as a native app to /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/MyApp/build/MyApp/native ...
[ERR] failed running native packager
[ERR] Assertion failed: (type_ == stringValue), function asCString, file src/json_value.cpp, line 679.

Have to be a p12 certificate not cer at least if it on windows. On mac can use certicicateAlias with an alias in your key ring.

The native packing documentation explains how to convert cer to dem to a p12. http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-1/#!/...tive_packaging

I converted the cert to p12 and used the setting, and tried build again, but I got the same error at the same line: 679. Although it had a MyApp.app, but when I tried to drag it and synch to device, device pops up a message: failed to launch MyApp.

On Mac, I also tried certicicateAlias ="iPhone developer FirstName Last Name", It says can't find the certicicateAlias.

Thanks for your analysis. This is my first natvie package I struggled , I can't resolve it after many hours search. Can you or anyone show a workable setting file by removing your name?
I installed compass, I used a empty generated sample project without any customization on lion, 2.1.1 sencha touch, 3.0.2 cmd. It is really frustrating I have not seen it working on device.

Having the exact same issue, after getting the p12 file trying again same thing happens.

There is a need for better documentation on deploying apps. The current documentation just referrers you to the iOS docs for anything related to that. But in most cases there are no answers there.

Help is appreciated.

I also had issues, but have it working on windows environment, another thing you could try is give you p12 certificate a password.
