iOS Question Unable to install B4I-Bridge or apps

[MotoMusher]

I am sure I am doing something wrong. Not sure if there are any logs available I can review?

Upgraded B4i to 2.31
iOS 8.2
Since new app I am writing would not install, I decided to re-install b4a bridge. Successfully get to page and and click install. I get a grey target for an app icon, name changes to "Installing" then I get a popup for "Unable to Download App B4i-Bridge could not be installed at this time.
Get the same error trying to install the app.

Phone is still registered as a device in my apple account.

Certificate for "iOS distribution" expires Feb 15, 2016

Any ideas how to proceed?

I also had gone in and installed (re-installed) the certificate as suggested in the popup troubleshooting section.

My old original B4i bridge is still installed and launches properly. I am not sure if that is an issue or not?

It if is already installed then it is fine.

Are you able to install other apps?

 

[MotoMusher]

Yes, I was able to install twitter just now on that phone.

I meant to ask whether you can install your apps using the already installed B4i-Bridge?

Thanks Erel. No, I couldn't install apps I developed. I tried to re-install an existing app I wrote to the same phone and it was failing (along with the new app), but it was because I was on B4i v1.8. I read through the forums and saw you upgraded the hosted builder and xcode so I updated my B4i to 2.31 (VERY nice by the way). The build itself was then successful on the new app, but the apps I created won't install to the phone with the same message as B4i-Bridge. Admittedly, my original app I had that was installing will no longer compile under new version due to some poor variable names that are no longer allowed in 2.31. I will work on fixing that older project tonight. B4i not installing/reinstalling I thought was interesting, and made me wonder if there is a bigger problem than just my code.

1. Try to revoke the existing certificate and create a new certificate and provision file.
2. Make sure that the B4I certificate is installed on the device.

I am having a similar problem. I have just purchased the hosted MAC builder, and want to compile an app to my iPad. The compiler works fine, tells me to download the B4i Bridge, with Safari I can access the download page but when I press the circle with "Install" I get the option to install but then an error message "Unable to Download App "B4i-Bridge" could not be installed at this time". I have installed the certificate with ca.pem and I have re-issued the provisioning and Development profiles and certificates and put these in the B4iKeys folder. I'm wondering whether I perhaps already have a damaged or incorrect installation of B4i-Bridge on my iPad and that this is blocking the new installation. I was playing around with using my MAC as a compiler before I lost patience and turned to the hosted builder. Or is it something else?

Unlikely. If you don't see a B4i-Bridge app then it is not there.

You do see the B4I certificate in the device profiles, right (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/installing-b4i-bridge-and-debugging-first-app.45871/) ?

The second possible issue is with the provision profile. Open it with a text editor and make sure that you see your device UDID inside.
