iTunes software service authentication error domain error 434

Question

I am uploading iPhone application using latest xCode 8. I have good internet connection and all the relevant settings set up at iTunes connect. My distribution profiles are also

Answer 1

I have a different solution. I had "Enable Bitcode" set as false in my target settings but had "Include bitcode" checked as true for the validation. For obvious reasons, the validation would fail every time if I had include bitcode checked. I unchecked include bitcode and it worked just fine after cleaning my project.

Answer 2

I had this same issue, but it turned out I used a different profile in the Xcode project, then when I tried to validate the app. It wasn't noticeable since at my company we use multiple Apple id's under the same businessname. Maybe checking this helps?

Answer 3

In my case the problem was the virus protection software I am using. I turned it off before attempting validation and everything went fine.

Answer 4

Did you set the device to Generic iOS Device before you archived the build? That appears to have fixed it for me on a couple of different occasions.

Answer 5

it is quite easy, quit and reopen the Xcode project clean the project change the build number and build an archive.it will work

Answer 6

So this has what worked for me:

Preface: 4 days of debugging, recreated certificates numerous times, nothing worked, every time i try to validate/upload via Xcode it says same error "iTunes software service authentication error domain error 434"

Solution without XCode:

1. Create archive in Xcode
2. Export IPA in Organiser (Xcode > window > Organiser)
3. Open Application Loader and manually choose IPA generated
4. Done

Solution with XCode:

1. Create archive in Xcode
2. Click Validate
3. Unselect BitCode
4. Check if its validated, mine got validated when i unchecked bitcode
5. Not Try to genrate similar fashion with Bitcode unselected
6. If all goes fine now generate with Bitcode Checked(mine worked with these exact steps)
7. Done
