I'm having some trouble with the in-house enterprise app distribution that apple provides. I've already obtained the enterprise certificate and got the necessary files (p12, manifest, etc) and successfully built the app through phonegap build. The problem I'm having right now is that I'm unable to download the file from the server I've uploaded it onto. Whenever I attempt to do so from my phone, it gives me this error "Safari cannot download this file". Is this due to some sort of certification issue?
I've experienced a number of problems with the enterprise deployment scheme myself. There are a number of things you will want to make sure of:
.plist
and .ipa
files with a mime-type of application/octet-stream
. If it is not, the iOS device will not be able to download them..plist
file, make sure that the <string>
property under <key>url</key>
contains the full path to your .ipa
file. This would be where you would download the file through your web-browser. Anything less won't work.itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=http://yourserver.com/path/your.plist
where yourserver.com
is the domain name of your server, path
is the path to the directory on our server, and your.plist
is the name of your .plist
file.
