I'm getting the following error when I create a Distribution Provisioning Profile and try to run to the device
"The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file do not match those specified in your provisioning profile. (0xE8008016)."
I didn't find any issue if I create Adhoc Distribution provisioning profile and install in my device. But this happens only with Distribution Provisioning profile.Will this have any effect after submission to app store or while submitting to app store.?
You cannot install and run an app signed with a distribution profile. Those are for submitting only.

I'm developing an app in Adobe AIR for iOS which has app extension.
When I code sign app extension with Adhoc provisioning profile, it works fine.
But when I code sign app extension with App store and create ipa file, I'm getting the following error while installing on device:
The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing
Entitlements file are invalid, not permitted, or do not match those
specified in your provisioning profile. (0xE8008016).
Even though I didn't find the solution for this question, I would like to answer my findings.
For installing app on test devices, your app needs to be signed with Ad-hoc provisioning profile.
"App Store provisioning profiles do not allow for a distribution built application to be installed on an Apple device. To install your
distribution ready application on a device, you must create an Ad Hoc
provisioning profile."
But there is a catch here. If Ad-hoc provisioning profile is already present on test device, you can install app signed with App Store provisioning profile.
iOS App Extension have its own provisioning profile. Even if Ad-hoc provisioning profile for App Extension is installed on device, you cannot install app with app extension signed with App Store provisioning profile on test device.
Solution: Use TestFlight to test App Store build on test devices.
Extension app have its own provisioning profile and entitlements, check https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/identifier/bundle to see your app extension's entitlements, it should match the entitlements in xcode project.
I read online we need a separate distribution provisioning profile if we want to distribute an app to the app store. I know there are answers already on StackOverflow for this error but I think mine pertains to my Distribution provisioning profile.
So right now I have two provision profiles, one for developer, and another for distribution. The app will build and run successfully on the same device when Code Signing Identity under "Build Settings" is set to iOS Developer. But when I switch Code Signing Identity to iOS Distribution and run on the same device, I get the error "None of the valid provisioning profiles include the devices". When I try the option to let Xcode "fix the issue", it says that
"Xcode failed to resolve the issue. Check your code signing settings; ensure you have a matching signing certificate and provisioning profile installed; and try again."
The provisioning profile for distribution is active on the Apple Developer site. When I try to reset in Preferences I still get the error
You can not run on a device with the Distribution profile. That's just for doing a build/archive and then submitting that to the store. If you want to run the production build on your device, submit to iTunes Connect and use TestFlight to install that build on your device.
As title is pointing, I'm able to generate and IPA for ad hoc deployment but when I try to do the same for App store the error "You already have an iOS Distribution Valid certificate"
I'm using the same provisioning profile and I have already check if provisioning profile is using the valid certificate and it does.
I had a provisioning profile to adhoc, but what I need was generate another provisioning profile for distribution.
So I have finally 3 provisioning profile:
Development Provisioning profile
Adhoc Provisioning profile
Distribution Provisioning profile
I have signed a code with a distribution provisioning profile but when I generated the ipa in XCode 5.1 (Save for Enterprise/Adhoc Deployment), the app does not install in my device. I have checked that the distribution profile is properly aligned to the production certificate that is installed in my Macbook. Any reasons or solutions so that I can install my app? Thanks!
Make sure you are using Adhoc Distribution Provisioning Profile, not AppStore Distribution Provisioning Profile. AppStore Distribution Profile is required to distribute app from App Store, in your case you need to do following things in your Developer Account.
Add your Device in Devices List.
Create an Adhoc Distribution Provisioning Profile.
Select and check all the Devices listed.
Sign with the Distribution Certificate, and Adhoc Profile.
Create Adhoc Build, create IPA, and install.
Visit Apple Doc for more information.
Hope it helps.
Cheers.
From what I understand, Xcode can re-sign an .ipa from an archive during the App store submission process, making it possible for you to create an archive with a Developer Provisioning Profile, and then sign it with a Distribution profile later. Here is a post that explains what I am talking about: http://oleb.net/blog/2011/06/code-signing-changes-in-xcode-4/
Unfortunately, I can't get it to work. When I create an archive using a Developer profile, then try to submit it with a Distribution profile, I get the following error: "Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate"
The application does not use any entitlements and has no entitlements file. The error is correct that "it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate", because it was originally signed with a developer certificate, and I am attempting to resign it with a Distribution certificate. I thought this was a valid thing to do...
The problem here is that when you originally archived it would have set the entitlements to be compatible with a developer profile, such as the get-task-allow set to true but you're re-signing using a distribution profile which requires get-task-allow to be false. Unfortunately it can't go and change the entitlements and so you get this problem.
I'm not entirely sure why Apple can't make it so that it can go and change the entitlements and do all the magic there. The code, resources, etc will all be the same after all.
