Fail to run on real device about webdriveragent

[rikyzan]

Hi @KazuCocoa,

Today WebDriverAgent worked!! I used a paid account (in last days I used a personal one)

I made these steps:

• pic a new webdriveragent project
• run mkdir [..] and bootstrap as shown in doc (http://appium.io/docs/en/drivers/ios-xcuitest-real-devices)
• from Xcode, enable "Automatically manage signing" and update bundle ids of IntegrationApp and WebDriverAgentRunner
• then xcodebuild [..] command from shell

first time, with a paid account, I had success. Then, I made exactly the same steps with a personal (using a new project and new bundle ids) but I encountered the same error like in the first post, code signature invalid.

My env is
Xcode 11.3.1
Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4
iOS 13.3.1
Appium 1.15.1

Do you know if is possible using a personal account actually? In a previous version of env (Xcode 10.1 and iOS 12.4) I did.

Thank you very much for supporting me :) !

How did you configure with manual or automatic?
I wondered how did you configure your provisioning profile.

Btw, how about xcodeOrgId, xcodeSigningId and updatedWDABundleId via Appium?

Thank you for reply @KazuCocoa

I used the "Automatically manage signing option" of Xcode, with two different setting

• IntegrationApp and WebDriverAgentRunner with new unique bundle ids (xxx.yyy.IntegrationApp and xxx.yyy.WebDriverAgentRunner)
• IntegrationApp (xxx.yyy.IntegrationApp), WebDriverAgentRunner (xxx.yyy.WebDriverAgentRunner) and WebDriverAgentLib (original bundle id)

same errors occurs

without xcodebuild command success i'm unable to install WebDriverAgentRunner and appium always fails

There's something like option or flag that is missing or wrong in my xcode setting?

[KazuCocoa]

afaik, .xctrunner bundle id for test may be related to. I've appended the last line in the below troubleshooting (it is not reflected to appium.io)
https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/master/docs/en/drivers/ios-xcuitest-real-devices.md#troubleshooting-ideas
Xcode seems to handle it well, but we probably tweak it without Xcode (like vanilla xcodebuild)

[rikyzan]

unfortunately Xcode seems to work well, because it generates something like xxx.WebDriverAgentRunner.xctrunner. if i append .xctrunner in bundle id, in log i could see the generated bundle is xxx.WebDriverAgentRunner.xctrunner.xctrunner.

could i use other workarounds for installing WDA? thanks @KazuCocoa

[KazuCocoa]

I mean creating a profile for a bundle id with .xctrunner.
If you could not use wildcard one, potentially the .xctrunner may help to create a proper provisioning profile.

I always do below either way to run appium against a real device.

• xcodeOrgId, xcodeSigningId and updatedWDABundleId as Appium's capabilities

or

• Open WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj and configure automatic provisioning profile, then launch Appium ( as http://appium.io/docs/en/drivers/ios-xcuitest-real-devices/ )

I faced a couple of errors with a personal account (in a year), but no errors with a paid account.
A personal account may also have an issue to handle well in xcodebuild.
(In the case, Xcode also had an issue in my case)

Could be a duplicate of appium/appium#13927

I don't have an exact answer for the personal account question, unfortunately.
Some persons said when they re-create a new account, it succeeded. Only Apple knows the root cause...
