exp build:ios -c fails to create a distribution certificate and provisioning profile

Expo Development Tools
1

Hello, I am trying to build a stand alone ios app. My developer account has no certificates or provisioning profiles (I have cleared them all out). I want to let Expo generate them for me however without error it fails to create a distribution cert, successfully creates a push cert, and then fails to create the provisioning profile and the following error is printed.

After running I can see the push cert in my developer account but thats it.

exp version is 57.2.1
expo sdk version is 31

? Will you provide your own Distribution Certificate? Let Expo handle the process

Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Hey @kikoda-cura,

The exp CLI has long since been replaced by the expo-CLI can you install that and try running the commands again with the expo command rather than exp command?

Cheers,

Adam

Thanks for the reply. I installed the new expo-cli and ran “expo build:ios -c” again. The same thing happened unfortunatley. A push cert was generating in my account, but the rest failed. Here is the output:

Hi, I see that you are using version 2.7.0 can you check if the same problem shows up on latest version?
