Invalid Bundle Structure for WatchKit

Question

I'm trying to submit a WatchKit app to the App Store but get this error.

Answer 1

Another cause for this is including a WatchKit or any other TargetApplication.app inside your application bundle.

Do not include any in your project settings > target > Build Phases > Copy Bundle Resources.

A bug in Xcode (6.2..) added it there when I tried to add it to Target > General > Embedded Binaries. Nothing changed in that section and no errors were shown so I ignored the bad feeling it gave me.

After hours dealing with other certificate issues (and hosing all of our TestFlight testers, due to revoking distribution certs, which was apparently/probably required), upgrading to Xcode 6.3.1 I finally remembered this bad feeling and found the app watchkit application lurking in the Copy Bundle Resources section and removed it.

In addition to the Invalid Bundle Structure error above the specific errors exhibited for me were:

ERROR ITMS-90378: "CFBundleIdentifier Collision. There is more than one bundle with the CFBundleIdentifier value 'com.company.App.watchkitapp' under the iOS application 'App.app'
ERROR ITMS-90451: "CFBundleIdentifier Collision. The Info.plist CFBundleIdentifier value 'com.company.App.watckitapp' of 'App.app/App Watchkit App.app' is in conflict with the Info.plist CFBundleIdentifier value of 'App.app/Plugins/App Watchkit Extension.appex/App WatchKit App.app'

All were gone and submission worked fine after removing.

Also, validation passed fine even with both instances of the watckit app.

Answer 2

You cannot submit WatchKit apps yet even though Xcode 6.2 and iOS 8.2 are officially out. See the following answer for more info.
