Me three.
I’ve removed everything I can think as extraneous.
I do have a git repo in the folder- could this be it?

Hello!

This error typically means the format of your certificate was incorrect. The certificate must be a .p12 file, not a .cer or a .pem, etc.

To convert your .cer to a .p12, you can use Keychain Access or OpenSSL, as outlined in our docs here: http://docs.ionic.io/docs/security-profiles

I’m having same issue. the only place a ‘.p12 file’ is mentioned is for Push Notifications. On Apple website, the cert to download is not a p12, it’s a .cer - I’m confused now based on the Ionic setup steps then for deploying ?

8

This was it. Ionic platform allows users to upload the .cer file when it should be the .p12 file.

The .cer is a plain certificate file that I believe is dynamic. The .p12 is static and can be used for other services. To make a .p12, open the .cer in Keychain Access, secondary (control) click on it and click “Export…”, and make sure it is set to a .p12. Then set a password. Upload it in your console at ionic.io, and you’re all set!

I just updated the provisional certificate and had to update ionic package certificate accordingly. I don’t do that often so I ended uploading the .cer file instead of the .p12 as remarked above. That solved my problem BUT I strongly suggest to edit ionic.io UI to give this simple hint when receiving the certificate.

The text on the popup to upload the certificate says something like “Development / Appstore Certificate [upload button] Provisioning profile [upload button]”. I fell for the first input and thought it had to be the .cer file. So, specifying “Development / Appstore Certirficate (p12 file)” would have saved us all the time.

Regards!!
