is there a way to do this with a distribution key?

[DrN0OB]

I keep getting an error "No Certificate Matches Private Key" when I change everything to "distribution_identity"

[iBrent]

@DrN0OB To be honest it's easier to do this on a Mac, so be sure to check out my tutorials showing how to do that. In general for a distribution key, you need to create a provisioning profile in the distribution tab on your iOS dev account. I've got videos on that as well. Otherwise, if you know you've done all that, make sure you have the correct app id in your -app.xml that matches the Distribution cert, etc. Good luck!

Hi, i successfully managed to create my p12 file and it works, thank you !

But i want to create iphone applications from another computer (laptop), how can i do that ? the p12 file doesn't seem to work..

[huttd]

ok thanks for that, im just making devices on Windows platforms and it works fine. thaks for the heads up.

[huttd]

so much easier to create a .p12 file by going into CS5 Flash and choosing Adobie Air,

then just go to the Air settings and signature tab, leave everything blank and choose create, put in your details and it will save as a .p12 file. all done.

[iBrent]

@huttd You realize that the .p12 generated by Flash isn't the same as the one I show in this tutorial, right? The .p12 Flash generates won't let you sign the app for testing or deployment on an iOS device.

after i type what you have at 1:54 i get the following error: 'openssl' is not recognized as an internal or external command.

Any suggestions?

[petergrillot]

For anyone who got a "unable to write a random state" with, I ran the cmd prompt as an admin, and it worked fine. In the start menu, just type 'cmd' in the search field, and right click 'cmd' and click 'Run as administrator"

[redpedak]

what should i type when it says 'enter export pass: because i keep typing a same word for verefiying and export : and tells me unable to write a random state

[ddskier]

after openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey mykey.key -in distribution_identity.pem -out iphone_dist.p12

getting "unable to write 'random state'" Any suggestion are much appreciated.

[Dodekus]

Thank you for creating these videos. Helped me a lot. I just managed to create a simple app.

[TheIlluminatus07]

i don't have the mkey.key file,,,,,OMG help I am dying!!!

[guitartabuk]

Thanks for the videos, I did manage to get it to work to make an app , (on 64 bit windows the tutorial works with the openssl "lite" version not the full version, and you should save your certificate file from the previous video in the bin folder)

Now I can only upload to the itunes app store if I have a mac -

they just want you to buy a mac

[PiereDome]

I kept getting the error message "unable to load certificate"

If you get this message make sure the file you have in the bin folder is the actual file and not a shortcut to the file

That will fix your problem

@ohiovr no luck, finally I have asked my friend to export the key for me with his MAC....

[big323ballin]

@ohiovr yea man i dont know it used to work but no, i know for a fact it isnt malware but i dont know why it isnt working anymore.

[c8001221]

I have used "openssl genrsa -out mykey.key 2048" to generate mykey.

However, it don't prompt me to input password when I run

openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey mykey.key -in developer_identity.pem -out iphone_dev.p12

But it just shown

Loading 'screen' into random state - done

No certificate matches private key

how come?

[ohiovr]

@c8001221 Help! I'm having the exact same problem. I've been able to get this to work a few months ago but now it no longer works.

[big323ballin]

There Is This program that i use called BirdKey that can create the certificate signing request AND Convert a certificate into a .p12 file for you..its really good and makes it easy...you can get it at the sba-software website..just go to sba-software . com

[ryanstewart86]

@big323ballin its a virus

[ohiovr]

@big323ballin The software is junk it doesn't work. I just hope its not malware.

[rrockafellowcgi]

where do you get the mykey.key file?

[rrockafellowcgi]

Just saw your other video that answered that question.

openssl genrsa -out mykey.key 2048

[Jshariat]

Thanks for these videos!

[MrColintje]

How I get the (developer_identity.cer) file?

[pderop]

@MrColintje it's actually in a movie also made by iBrent -- if you search for mykey.key, you should be able to locate it
