Answer 1

This is really weird issue people are facing from new version of XCode and macOS Sierra. There are multiple ways you can solve this error are as follows:

1. Use latest XCode 8.2.1 and macOS Sierra 10.12.1, and upload archive from new XCode. Get latest XCode from here
2. Archive your app, Create .ipa file with options Save for iOS App Store Deplyment and upload it using Application Loader.

One of these options should work as I faced same issue and fixed it by doing both of this for 2 times till now. Prefer #1 as you don't have to use any other tool for uploading build.

Answer 2

In my case I used old Application Loader and saw this error. To launch latest Application Loader chose Xcode -> Open Developer Tool -> Application Loader
