Codesign Error and FBConnect Library for Iphone

Just spent the morning tracking down an issue where I couldn't submit an application to the app store. Hopefully good will pick this up and save you some trouble

This is the key issue:

a sealed resource is missing or invalid

You will see that error when using ApplicationLoader while looking at Console.app.

Here is the full message:

I finally found out that the issue was some strangely named files in the FBConnect.bundle .

The solution is to remove files that start with "._".

Here is the blog post that finally saved me from my mental breakdown.

A solution to: Application failed codesign verification
