I have recently upgraded to XCode 4.5 and have been trying to release a new version of my app. I went to the itunes connect portal and prepared it for upload. I changed the version numbers in my bundle. Now I archive it, and validate it. No problems here.
The problem is when I try to distribute it I get this error
Before you rip this question appart, I have already tried these fixes here, here, and by using the application loader
I am out of ideas. I really need to get this update out and I have no idea why I am getting this error. If anyone else has had this problem, especially with xcode 4.5 (which seems to have started this problem in the first place) please let me know
Ok, so I finally solved my problem. It is Java related as many of the other answers suggest, however their solutions didn’t work for me. I got some help from this Apple Forum
That solution still did not work for me though, so I did a slight workaround by just moving the virtual machine file. You could always move it back when you’re done.
You can confirm that this worked by checking the current java version
Which should give you 1.6.x. This should fix the problem. Also note I still used Application Loader 2.7 to do this (Although I bet it would have worked either way).
