What causes 502s when Xcode Cloud clones from GitHub?
I have an inconsistent Xcode Cloud failure that I'm hoping to learn more about? Additional context is available in Apple Support case 102378073626 and Feedback Assistant FB13769150. Every 3 months, ~half of my project's Xcode Cloud builds will fail for a few days in a row. I usually file a support request with Apple, they fix something on their end, builds succeed, and then exhibit the same failures again in 3 months. I'm hoping to learn anything that y'all can share about: Why does this happen? Does it coincide with new macOS versions being deployed onto Xcode Cloud? What did Apple do to fix it each time? Is there anything I can change about my project to make the failure less likely? (Such as putting a delay between the clone, brew install, and pod install steps that all hammer GitHub?) Specific symptoms: Xcode Cloud builds will fail after receiving an HTTP 502 from GitHub. This usually happens when it attempts to clone a repo, brew install, or pod install. One example: [!] Error installing FirebaseSessions [!] /usr/bin/git clone https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk.git /Volumes/workspace/tmp/d20240809-12044-znknw7 --template= --single-branch --depth 1 --branch CocoaPods-10.28.0 Cloning into '/Volumes/workspace/tmp/d20240809-12044-znknw7'... error: RPC failed; HTTP 502 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 502 fatal: expected flush after ref listing Error Command exited with non-zero exit-code: 1

How to silence weekly/monthly screen capture access notification?
I'm running a launch agent in a CI node. The agent is responsible for launching CI build/test jobs. The agent, being the responsible process, has been granted kTCCServiceScreenCapture permission. With this in place I can run /usr/sbin/screencapture during CI test jobs, archiving the visual state of the CI machine if a test fails, which makes it easier to diagnose why the test failed. However with macOS 15 I get weekly/monthly notifications about the agent being able to record the screen. The general advice for this is that apps should migrate to ScreenCaptureKit, but I'm using a built in tool in macOS, /usr/sbin/screencapture, so how am I supposed to deal with that?

Private key management with automatic signing
I am currently attempting to set up iOS app building via CI (using GitHub Actions). I would like to use automatic signing via xcodebuild -allowProvisioningUpdates and an App Store Connect API key. However, this will only work properly on the first CI run, since a certificate will be created, but is not available for subsequent runs since it is on a new machine (failing with Your account already has an Apple Development signing certificate for this machine, but its private key is not installed in your keychain). Is there a way to do either of the following? Via the CLI, generate a new p12 certificate on-demand which I can cache and add to the keychain for future signing Make just the RSA private key available to xcode so that in the automated signing process, it can create a CSR with that key if needed and download the cer (which may already exist for that key) and generate the p12 on demand

Upload ipa from command line using individual API key
I'm trying to upload an ipa during CI/CD using the following command: API_PRIVATE_KEYS_DIR=<path_to_AuthKey_<key_id>.p8_dir> xcrun altool --upload-app --apiKey <my_key_id> --apiIssuer <issuer_id> -t ios -f my.ipa But it fails with the following error: Error Domain=ITunesConnectionAuthenticationErrorDomain Code=-26000 \"Failure to authenticate.\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Failure to authenticate., NSLocalizedDescription=Failure to authenticate., NSLocalizedFailureReason=App Store operation failed.} I fear the reason is that the altool doesn't support individual API keys, is that correct or am I doing something wrong?

Xcode Cloud SIGILL Crashes
This issue started to appear in the last couple of weeks. And it's annoying because Xcode Cloud actually is based on build duration. Here is a sample: The whole build took like 10 minutes. We can easily consume the 25 hours free tier because of these. The crash logs are completely useless. And the failing tests change from one run to the other and on different simulators. I really hope Xcode Cloud team look into this as it's frustrating and kills the whole point of Xcode Cloud (BTW, these issues won't happen on Bitrise).

How to make CI build with Xcode project with automatic signing?
We have an iOS project that is configured with automatically managed signing. We cannot get automatic signing to work on our CI (GitHub Actions). To even get xcodebuild to archive we have to force it to not sign at all: xcrun xcodebuild \ -workspace app.xcworkspace \ -scheme prod \ -configuration 'Release' \ -destination generic/platform=iOS \ -archivePath ./build/prod.xcarchive \ CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY="" \ CODE_SIGNING_REQUIRED=NO \ CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO \ clean archive All our attempts to make xcodebuild archive do manual signing have failed. In order to have the app properly signed with the right entitlements we then call codesign: codesign -f \ -s Distribution \ --entitlements prod.entitlements \ ./build/prod.xcarchive/Products/Applications/prod.app Then we export the ipa: xcrun xcodebuild \ -exportArchive \ -archivePath ./build \ -exportOptionsPlist exportOptions.plist \ -exportPath ./build This seems to work so my question is: Is it supported to do manual signing this way? Is there a better way? If we omit the codesign step, the app will still be signed - by exportArchive we assume, but then the entitlements are missing.

Archiving swift package that supports visionOS requires x86_64 architecture
Hello, I have a swift package that supports visionOS and one of its targets is a xcframework that also support visionOS and when I try to archive that swift package (using xcodebuild archive) I get this error: note: '<xcframework path>' is missing architecture(s) required by this target (x86_64), but may still be link-compatible. (in target '[library name]' from project '<swift package name>') But starting in Xcode 15.2 (I have Xcode 15.4 installed), you cannot develop for visionOS on Intel machines. So why does it require that the xcframework needs x86_64 support for the visionOS simulator? Any help would be great. Thanks!

Provide my own machine for Xcode Cloud
I'm working on some apps at the minute, with the intention of running a lot of automated UI tests. Xcode cloud looks great and has a lot of integrated features, but having to make sure I don't run too many hours so my subscription doesn't stop mid dev cycle, or getting a surprise large bill etc, are things I want to avoid. Even the cheapest paid plan for a year works out about the same cost as an M2 mac mini, which would probably be significantly faster than the cloud nodes. Github actions allow you to provide your own machines. But actions requires a lot more scripting, and so far they've been very slow to update Macos/Xcode versions (not sure how this will effect supplying own machine). My preference would be to deploy my own machine for Xcode cloud, similar to what we used to be able to do with Xcode server. I think this is currently impossible right? Is there any word that this might be an added feature in the near future?

Entitlements stripped during upload to TestFlight with altool
On our CI (GitHub Actions) we are signing our .ipa with codesign and after that uploads the resulting .ipa with altool to TestFligt. The problem is that the entitlements added by codesign no longer appear when we view the build on TestFlight. The app requires entitlements for push notification and for associated domains. codesign -s Distribution prod.entitlements prod.ipa Immediately after we do a codesign --verbose --display --entitlements - and the entitlements show fine. Next command is xcrun altool --upload-app --type ios -f prod.ipa --apiKey $api_key_id --apiIssuer $appstore_api_key_issuer To us it seems like altool strips the entitlements from the .ipa. What are we doing wrong?

`xcodebuild build-for-testing` does not work when there are build plugins and multiple destinations
Hello, we recently added a build plugin to our swift package and we have a Xcode project that uses the swift package as a dependency and we build that Xcode project from the command line using xcodebuild build-for-testing. After we added that build plugin to the swift package, xcodebuild now fails and says this: If I remove that build plugin from the swift package then xcodebuild build-for-testing will build successfullly. It is also worth noting then when we run the xcodebuild build-for-testing command we pass in multiple -destination flags. If we pass one -destination flag then xcodebuild succeeds even with the build plugin. So it seems like the issue is around having multiple destination flags and a build plugin added. This sounds like a bug within xcodebuild. Any thoughts or ideas on why this isn't working would be helpful! Here is an example of what our full xcodebuild command looks like: xcodebuild build-for-testing -project “SomeProject” -scheme “SomeScheme” -configuration Debug -destination ‘SomeDestination1’ -destination ‘SomeDestination2’ -destination ‘SomeDestination3’ -disableAutomaticPackageResolution -onlyUsePackageVersionsFromResolvedFile -skipPackageUpdates -skipPackagePluginValidation -allowProvisioningUpdates DEVELOPMENT_TEAM=SomeTeam Thank you!

Xcode 15 + UI tests: text field timeout
Hello! Since Xcode 15 came out, I've been having this issue with UI tests where the test runner hangs for 60s when the keyboard is presented. In the test logs I get this kind of messages: 00:07.588 Wait for com.example.app to idle 01:07.642 App event loop idle notification not received, will attempt to continue. Interestingly, this only appears to be happening in CI environments (I've tried Xcode cloud and Circle CI). It works fine on my local machine. Everything is fine with Xcode 14, but I can't keep my CI environment stuck on Xcode 14 forever. I've tried disabling animations using UIView.setAnimationsEnabled(false), but it did not fix the problem. Here are the full logs of what it takes to fill out a text field: logs.txt

Archive Build Requires 'Preview Content'
Does an 'archive build' require 'preview content'? I've put swift source files into 'Preview Content' directories - one directory for the top-level App and one for an embedded framework. An 'archive build' fails, complaining about the code in a #Preview block. #Preview { // the archive build fails to find this `default` ?? let controller = PersistenceControllerTopLevelPreview.default let user = controller.user ... The framework has its 'Preview Context' specified in the Development Assets; same with the top-level App.

Segmented Fault 11: error (Xcode 15)
I'm encountering an **error Segmentation fault: 11 ** during the archiving process. If the issue is happing with the my code. Then how can I diagnosing the problem. or figure out pin point in code base? I changed the compiler optimization level. It works for me when I use the Osize compiler optimization level. Previously, it was set to Ospeed. Want to know about the impact of the Osize compiler optimization level on the app.

errSecInternalComponent for a specific target
I am looking for any help regarding an errSecInternalComponent error I am seeing when trying to archive my iOS app via my CI process. Specifically, this CI process is a GitHub Action running on a self-hosted M2 Pro Mini machine to which we have Screen Share access. I have followed the very helpful seminal post and have confirmed that I can run the necessary command in the local terminal via Screen Share, and I don't get any Keychain Access dialogs to pop up. When I try to run the same command via an SSH terminal from my local machine on that same machine, I get the following error: /Users/{username}/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/{projectID}/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/{projectname}/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/{some name}NotificationServiceExtension.appex: errSecInternalComponent I only get the error for that one service extension target. The project is only a couple years old, created with Xcode 14 or maybe 13. The signing has always been managed automatically with the provisioning profiles for all our targets being managed by Xcode. Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions as to what I may be missing or how to address this problem. I am more than happy to provide any more information I can to diagnose and solve the issue.

Issue with running UI automation tests
Hi, I have created the applications (debug and runner) using xcodebuild. I have tried it both using Xcode 14.3.1 and 15.1. I used the xcodebuild build-for-testing... with -configuration set to Debug (I've also built the apps by omitting the -configuration altogether). The configurations are set correctly in Xcode, and I can run the automation from Xcode and running xcodebuild. I am using a different tool other than xcodebuild to run the tests (I'm using go-ios https://github.com/danielpaulus/go-ios). The issue I'm having is that right at the beginning of the test, I'm getting this error "Failed to retrieve test configuration from IDE". I know it's something to do with the two apps (debug and runner appp), because I've made comparison to a brand new application I had created using Xcode. I assume this is something to do with the build configurations we have in the app (Debug or Release), but they're all correctly set in Xcode, and I can also run the tests (albeit using the xctestrun file) without any problems. Do you know what could be causing this? In particular, what could cause the above error to be generated? Any help (however related or unrelated you think it could be) is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sep
