Charlie,
Thanks for your response.
The command line zip leaves out some information
I had not thought about that. Did not realize compression could be lossy.
I had assumed that the zip file could extract all that was put into it and hence assumed that iTunesConnect could only receive the zip file in a certain format. I had always assumed that it would first unzip the archive and then validate it.
I compress the AdHoc version the same way and it works just fine. I can unzip it and successfully install it on a provisioned device witout any issue.
I would really like to be able to generate the zip file in my build script instead of having someone manually compress the APP folder.
Thanks,
-TRS
