I recently upgraded to Catalina and Xcode 11.
Now when I try to upload an archive from the organizer, I get a simple error saying «"Error Domain=WorkerErrorDomain Code=-10000 "An error occurred uploading to the App Store."»
Since this isn't really an error message, I tried to use xcrun altool to upload the ipa.
That's when things get interesting. This fails with the following error:
Java 1.5 or Java 1.6 is required. Currently, java is the default java version. Please upgrade.
Java 1.6 is ancient! There's not even a downloadable package available for Catalina.
Any ideas what's going wrong here?
This is the output of the command line tool (redacted for paths and secret-codes):

The culprit was a directory on my system named "/usr/local/itms/" which had a very old iTMSTransporter from 2008 in it. Xcode using that old tool for some reason. After I deleted that whole directory and relaunched Xcode, it worked!
