iOS Question Error on upload to iTunes

[Graeme Mitchell]

I am getting the following error when I use the hosted builder upload. I use the Tools/BuildServer/Download Last Build. This gives me a tmp.zip and the ipa file. I have create an App-Specific password and when I select the tmp.zip it say "Invalid Archive File". When I select the IPA file it seems to work ok for a while then the following error appears;

So its a problem with the provisioning cert and i should create a new one for distribution and that will give me the archive.zip?

1. Always use a distribution certificate.
2. You only need to switch to a store provision profile.
3. See the compilation dialog text. It tells you whether you made a store build or not.
