Upgrade's application-identifier entitlement string does not match installed application -> rejecting upgrade
- Open Xcode - > Window -> Devices
- Click on your device and remove the app you are trying to install from the installed apps list.
- Try running now.
After doing some further reading, I found this answer to be helpful. In my case, I am building via a grunt script so I can modify my archive/sign/package step to insert the entitlements during the codesign step.
If you follow the steps I linked, you will want to make sure your entitlements.plist file contains the wildcard as shown below:
<key>application-identifier</key><string>com.company.*</string>If you are doing the app packaging manually, you may want to look at iResign. This will create the entitlements.plist file for you and inject it while signing your app.
I wish there was better documentation available from Apple on this. I cannot get the same effect in XCode no matter what I specify in my target's Code Entitlements settings.
I have just had this error - it was because I had changed the development team used to sign the app. Ie I used our company's distribution profile to sign the development version and the client's distribution profile to sign a release version.
Check that the team id in the entitlements is the correct team id (printed in the error message) -> then its the installed app that is wrong. Also check that you haven't specified an application-identifier in an entitlements file. I didn't have an entitlements file at all.
In this case simply delete the app on the device and reinstall it fresh.
