iOS 8.1.3 - Enterprise Distribution - Application is missing the application-identifier entitlement

Question

I\'m having so much problems with Enterpsie Distribution on iOS 8.1.3. I managed to fix MOST of my installations which were giving this error:

Ignore manifest do

I have resolved this issue by following the steps from this post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/28235443/2638825

For apps that have been signed by a third party that you're resigning with your enterprise certificate (this walkthrough is assuming the ipa file is AcmeApp.ipa, your entitlements file is entitlements.plist and your provisioning profile is provProvile.mobileprovision; all files are in the Desktop folder (Mac OSX), and S836XXACME is your team identifier):

Create a new entitlements.plist file:

application-identifier
S836XXACME.uk.co.acme.AcmeApp
get-task-allow

Unzip the ipa:

cd ~/Desktop

unzip AcmeApp.ipa

Remove the Code Signature:

rm -r Payload/AcmeApp.app/_CodeSignature/ 

Copy in the mobileprovision file:

cp provProfile.mobileprovision Payload/AcmeApp.app/embedded.mobileprovision

Codesign:

codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: ACME Corporation Limited" --entitlements entitlements.plist Payload/AcmeApp.app

Zip it up as the resigned ipa:

zip -qr AcmeApp_resigned.ipa Payload/

You also need to amend the manifest.plist file as per the 'ALREADY' signed part earlier:

bundle-identifier
S836XXACME.uk.co.acme.AcmeApp

I tried this solution on iOS 8.4.1, 8.4, 8.0.2 and 7.1.1 devices and it works for me.
