Receipt validation errors on submission to Mac app store


On Mac App Store submission my app get rejected with following explanation:-

"With a valid receipt installed, the app quits on launch. The Console reports the app "Exited with exit code: 173" and the OS states the app "is damaged and can't be opened". This generally indicates that the app is not verifying its receipt correctly."

I do not do any receipt validation in my code at all so what can I do to fix this? It happens only on review, not on my side. This is simple swift ui + Objective-C+ some C++ for logic OS X application. With other app, (Objective-C + CPP) everything was alright.


Solution

  • After all this happened to be bug on the reviewer side. I asked to reexamine my app in Resolution center and it passed the review. Thanks to @Aderstedt I felt more confident that it's not my bug.
