Xcode 7.3.1 : Unable to validate your application - ios

I am trying to upload an application to store and getting this error Unable to validate your application
The path '/var/folders/ml/4s9tjk05443_gtbcft66hnyr0000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.KVe/Packages/Walmart Cupons.ipa' does not contain a file.**. For more information please refer to the screenshot attached.

I had the same issue but then I used Application Loader and it worked correctly. After validating your app Export your app by selecting option as Save for iOS App Store Deployment and then Just upload your apps ipa using Application Loader.
Download it from here:-

Video to how use Application Loader

I suggest that you try to use Application Loader to upload your app to the App Store.
Archive your build.
Select the build and click export.
Select "Save for iOS App Store Development".
Once you successfully exported your build, go to Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Application Loader.
Login with your app developer account.
On the lower right corner click "choose".
Select the .ipa file that you just exported earlier.
Click next to upload your app.
Before I always use Xcode to upload my build for App Store, but a lot of problems occur. But when I use the App Loader. These problems seem to disappear.
Hope this helps. :)

iOS - Error: This action could not be completed. Try Again (-22421)

I am trying to upload an iOS App to the App Store, using Xcode >> Organizer, but I got the issue This Action could not be completed. Try Again (-22421) as in the below image.
I tried to re-upload app many times but same error occurred
Here is snaps for an issue I'm getting :
What to do next? How can I upload my app successfully on store?
Tried using Application Loader app and now getting another error
Error ITMS-90168: "The binary you uploaded was invalid.
Use Application Loader to upload your app, as Xcode organizer can't upload file (rejects IPA) sometimes, without genuine reason and it's frequently occurring issue, with Xcode Organizer, that apple could not resolve permanently.
There are few other reasons also for such kind of error, like
Apple app upload server is not working properly (not in
connection or lost connection during file upload). Just wait and try
again later (may be after a day).
Fluctuation in your network
connection, during file upload.
You may not have added privacy
statements in your info.plist file.
Cocoa Keys: Here, is list of keys that you should consider to add in your info.plist file, if you have used that service in your application.
Solution for error code: 90186
Outdated application loader can be reason of this error. Use latest Xcode tool and use application loader from Xcode Tool.
Incorrect/invalid provisioning profile, associated with your build. Ensure, your have used correct provisioning profile (A provisioning
profile with Distribution/Production mode is require. A Development mode provisioning profile won't allow your to upload app on store.)
You can find latest Application Loader Tool from latest Xcode Tool: Xcode (Menu) ► Open Developer Tool ► Application Loader
This works fine with application loader. You will have to create ur ipa from the Xcode organizer and use application loader.
I am facing this issue for the last week. finally uploaded using application loader.

Unable to upload app to iTunes Connect - iTunes Store operation failed. Authentication timeout

I'm trying to upload my app to iTunes Connect with Xcode. I chose product > archive, choose my account, it compiles and when I try to upload it hand for a long time on:
Uploading Archive
Sending API usage to iTunes Connect...
Then it shows an error message:
I've restarted Xcode and the entire machine but still it keeps repeating itself.
What's wrong here?
This usually happens to me when the phone is connected while uploading the archive, and removing the phone so far has been solving the issue for me.
My solution was to install Application Loader. At first it seemed like it's stuck as well, but after about 10 minutes it started uploading.
I solved this issue.
There is a checkbox "include bitcode" at the bottom of the Summary screen (when you validate Archive) or Send XXX to Apple screen (when you upload to App Store) where the Organizer show the Binary and Entitlements together with Provisioning Profile. In XCode 7 it is checked by default. I unchecked it and re-run Validation - worked fine. As soon as checked the checkbox back on, it started failing with same error.
I have also unchecked the other checkbox on the same screen - symbolis upload.
Successfully uploaded the binary using the Organizr just now.
Here the solution that helped in Xcode 8, summary screen:
Still getting the same error despite "unchecking" bitcode and also archiving with the bitcode under Basic Profile turned off in the info.plist.
It would only work if I used Application Loader, like this:
First, export the application Archive from Xcode's Organizer window (it saves this into a directory on the Desktop).
Then, from Xcode:
Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Application Loader
My guess is that there is a bug somewhere either with iTunes Connect back end or xCode itself.
A couple of Xcode restart didn't resolve the issue but Application Loader solved it for the very first attempt. Also, Application Loader, is more descriptive for letting one know what's going on during the whole upload process. Plus simultaneous apps upload is possible via Application Loader.
I got this error when trying to upload an app to App Store Connect (01/20/2020). Restarting Xcode fixed the issue for me.
I've had the same issue.
Tried to upload the app with Transporter with no success.
Restarting of Mac and Xcode didn't help.
Solution was to logout from Xcode and log in back
Xcode -> Preferences -> Accounts -> Select your Apple ID and click on "-" below
To submit to App Store use Application Loader but after creating the "App-Specific" password as the following:
Log in to https://appleid.apple.com and enter your 2FA (TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION) code.
Then in the Security section on the bottom right area, you'll see: APP-SPECIFIC PASSWORDS.
Generate Password... Click the link to create an app-specific password, Enter your password.
Copy the app-specific password. Enter the password into the Application Loader.
Choose the exported ipa to submit it.
For developers uploading apps with Xcode: simply change network and restart your Mac.
I solved this issue with Transporter, native Apple application. You can download it from AppStore.
https://apps.apple.com/ua/app/transporter/id1450874784?mt=12
This application has a much more information about uploading process and possible errors.
Install the "Transporter" app from the MacOS app store.
From Xcode's organizer, select your archive and press "Distribute App"
Select "Export" and proceed as usual.
Choose the exported .ipa file into the transporter and press "Deliver".
I was getting the same error. Application Loader didn't work. I couldn't open any Apple Developer/Forum webpages either to find an answer there. And iTunesConnect wouldn't let me log in. I thought the site was down and I couldn't even access the Apple Status pages.
My VPN was connecting outside the US. After turning off the VPN everything returned to normal. I have been letting the VPN connect to random places around the globe, probably should keep it in my area.
In my case, The build with the same number (e.g. Version 1.0(1.6)) was already been uploaded to AppStore. I found that after logging into itunes and checked the TESTFLIGHT BUILDS -> iOS and there I saw 1.6 (Processing)
Note: 1.0 is the version number and 1.6 is build number.

Using Application Loader to upload PhoneGap project

I have got an .ipa file generated from using a phonegap build. I am trying to upload the ipa file using the application uploader. I have a developer license, so all I need to do is link my ipa to the app on itunes connect.
The problem I'm having is when I click "deliver your app" in application loader and choose the ipa file.. The following screen is displayed:
This is the wrong app.. how do I change this to my ImpactSafety app?
Can anyone offer a solution to this problem. Thanks in advance.
Update 1:
This is my app within the iTunes Connect. Notice it is a the "Prepare for Submission" stage:
Still when I open application loader and deliver my app.. it still offers a different app that I have in the iTunes Connect space.
For load app to your iTunesConnect site, your app must have status "Prepare for Submission":
1) Open itunesconnect.apple.com
2) Find your app and click him
3) In left column find "VERSION OR PLATFORM" link and choose "iOS"
4) Set your version number
5) Fill all necessary fields
6) Restart application loader and find your app
7) Try reload your IPA with Application Loader

Submit iOS app to app store using iTunes Connect by uploading zip file still work?

We have finished the project and created the .xcarchive file code sign with our client's distribution provisioning profile & certificate. Our client does not have Xcode installed on their computer and they do not have anyone that is proficient in using Xcode. Is there any other way that they can submit to the app store without using Xcode? Like the old way - using iTunes Connect and uploading the zip file? If yes, how can we create the zip file?
Thanks in advance!

Uploading a zip file in iTunes Connect hasn't been supported for quite some time.
Besides using Xcode, the other option is to use the Application Loader application. Log into iTunes connect. Click on Manage Your Applications. Click on the Download Application Loader link. There is also a link for the user guide.

Bundling app for app store distribution in Xcode 4.3

I can't believe how difficult it is to figure out the final process for building an app and getting it into the app store.
I've already prepped iTunes Connect with my app and it shows up in Application Loader.
I finally figured out how to "archive" the app, although none of the guides I found, including Apple's, seemed to really describe this process in complete detail.
Now I've got a .xcarchive package. For some reason, Application Loader will not let me select that kind of file. I read somewhere about needing to archive as a .zip file, so I tried that. Now Application Loader allows me to select the file, but after I click Send, it gives me this error:
"The application wrapper must end in .app."
What exactly is the process of archiving from Xcode 4.3 and getting the application uploaded into the app store?
In the XCode Organizer, does the 'Archives' tab allow ou to 'Distribute'? You should then have the option to 'Submit to the iOS App Store'.
This is described in more detail in Distributing Your iOS App.
The submission process doesn't get a lot of description because, when it works, it's quite simple. You never need to manually locate the '.xcarchive' package or '.ipa' file for your app store submission, only for testing or backups outside the app store. (You do need the archive package, but it's just quietly created and then uploaded by XCode.)
