App “does not contain the correct beta entitlement”

Question

I submitted an application for review and I notice that the build that I submitted has an issue associated with it saying that Build 168 does not contain the correct b

Answer 1

Actually you can still choose the uploaded "error" build and submit for review. The status will be changed to "waiting for review".

Answer 2

I got same issue. After regenerating provisioning profiles I again got same issue. Then I uploaded binary via Xcode and it solved the issue.

It seems like issue is with Application Loader. Use Xcode to upload the binary.

Answer 3

In XCode, select the Target and go to the Capabilities tab. Look for any "Fix Issue" links. If you can't find any, try toggling a capability (say Wallet) on and off again to regenerate your entitlements file.

Answer 4

There are two step here:

1. Regenerate your provisioning profiles. Especially the AppStore provisioning profile to make sure the beta entitlement is there.
2. Archive and export your build by selecting the option "Save for iOS App Store Deployment"

Some of the mistakes comes from exporting the archive using the AdHoc deployment.

I bet Apple might remove AdHoc deployment in the future since TestFlight Beta Testing using AppStore builds serves the purpose.

Hope this helps.

Answer 5

For all it's worth I was using the Application Loader to upload the app and I never managed to get it to work (Application loader version 3.0 (620)). Once I tried using xCode via the Archive method things worked great. You can also tell if the Beta entitlement is present before submission.

Answer 6

Please regenerate your provisioning profile. It will Fix this problem it's because the missing entitlement is now there beta-reports-active = 1

After creating the new provisioning profile, make sure the entitlement is there.

Here is how it should look like when you click in Organizer "Export.." -> "Save for iOS App Store Deployment":
