Distribute to hockeyapp suddenly failing

[MarkMolina]

In version 1.6.0 I could successfully upload to hockeyapp by using the following settings.

ipa(
      workspace: "APPNAME.xcworkspace",
      configuration: "Beta",
      scheme: "Beta",
      destination: "build",
      identity: "Company BV",
      clean: true,
    )

hockey(
      api_token: "OUR_TOKEN",
      ipa: './build/APPNAME.ipa',
      notes_type: "1",
      notes: changelog,
    )

After upgrade (1.7.0) I get to following error:

Error when trying to upload ipa to HockeyApp: {"status"=>"error", "message"=>"App could not be created."}

Didn't touch anything and the app still lives in HockeyApp. Only thing that I changed is the ruby version (2.2.2).

EDIT
Tried to upload with the curl command from hockeyapp docs:

curl \
> -F "status=2" \
> -F "notes=Manual curl upload" \
> -F "notes_type=0" \
> -F "ipa=@APPNAME.ipa" \
> -F "dsym=@APPNAME.app.dSYM.zip" \
> -H "X-HockeyAppToken: API_TOKEN" \
> https://rink.hockeyapp.net/api/2/apps/APP_TOKEN/app_versions/upload

upload seems to work but can't install. Error: Unable to Download App.

So the upload work but you can't install it on your device? That sounds a lot like a code signing issue.

[MarkMolina]

Well... It only works if I use the curl command from terminal. Upload doesn't work with the hockeyapp command from the fastfile.

it happened to me just delete the app and recreate it on hockey and you are done

I had this problem as well, but it went away when I gave the hockey action the application's public_identifier parameter.

I had the same error message and public_identifier worked for me too. Thanks!

[KrauseFx]

Great to hear 👍

[soffes]

Same here. public_identifier is required.

Just so this doesn't happen: https://xkcd.com/979/ for when someone comes along and sees this: My Hockey uploads were working fine and then suddenly stopped working. The reason is that I changed my app's bundle ID, which means the referenced HockeyApp app no longer is associated, so it was trying to upload it to an App ID that doesn't exist. I fixed it by editing my HockeyApp app to match my new bundle ID of my actual app.
