iOS Question signiant upload error

[Markos]

Hi All,

I have been using the b4i upload to itunes connect successfully for months until today. It is saying signiant error or invalid port. Has anyone else been getting this with any newly created IPA's?

I tried it on different Internet providers so it may be some new requirment or update by apple causing this?

Any thoughts on what it might be?

Thanks

Mark

Same issue here,

I have been trying to upload for three days now.

iTunes Connect shows my old version 1.46 and three versions of my new version 1.47 with (Processing...) .

Very frustrating, spoke to Apple, still awaiting a solution from them...

spoke as in a phone call?

didn't know you could contact them directly desides that forum.

I just tested an app that one of the users sent me (with their Apple credentials). Strangely it works for me.

Does it still fail to all the users who posted in this thread?

Maybe there is a problem with one of the builders.

You can speak to Apple on their developer help lines here https://developer.apple.com/contact/phone/

But not the App review people ....

Personally I find Apple extremely frustrating, would rather a world of just Android, but people keep paying for Apple's over prices stylish kit ! LOL

it does for me...

 

[sorex]

and now you're rebooting the servers?

Uploading ipa file.
Communication error: ConnectFailure

 

[Erel]

Can you try it now?

 

[sorex]

no, still the same error.

 

[Erel]

I've created a temporary id that you can use to upload your apps if you encounter this error: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/temporary-id-to-upload-with-hosted-builder.68385/

It still seems like an error on Apple side. Will need to wait and see.

How do you use this temp id? The Itunes connect uploader asks for username and password?

This is the error message I have just received:

"Error Domain=ITunesTransporterErrorDomain Code=-18000 \"The max number of retries was performed. The package will not be uploaded.\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=The max number of retries was performed. The package will not be uploaded., NSLocalizedDescription=The max number of retries was performed. The package will not be uploaded., NSLocalizedFailureReason=The max number of retries was performed.

)

It is a User Id for the hosted builder. You need to set it under Tools - Build Server - Settings.

 

[Allan Cameron]

Thank you, Erel, that worked!

Erel,

i uploaded with your temporary id.

why we can't upload with our id? what is the problem?

 

[sorex]

it worked for me aswell with the temp server id, thanks!

what's the difference between the two? does it end up on another server where things work fine?

 

[sorex]

apparently some uploads got stuck on their server.

 

[Erel]

what's the difference between the two? does it end up on another server where things work fine?

Yes, it is uploaded from a different server.

I hope that this issue will be fixed soon.

I read as I initially stated that a signiant related error is sometimes tied to filesystem error that a file or folder becomes locked and this points to a specific set of servers being corrupted. Apple sys admin needs to do a system check fix the file system. Reboot and remount for the server or even cloud storage audit

Hi Erel

Thanks for finding the root cause and proving it is an issue worthy of Apple. I reflected your findings to apple to expedite their analysis and resolution

Thanks Erel! for uploading our app and setting up the temp builder id. App is now submitted and under review...
