Please include the kCFBundleIdentifierKey in the options dictionary when installing an app

Question

Anybody knows what this means?

Tried updating my app to ios 7 and tested it on iPad 2 and encountering these warning and error logs in Console:

Sep 24 16:23:56 iPad mobile_installation_proxy[118] <Warning>: LaunchServices: Please include the kCFBundleIdentifierKey in the options dictionary when installing an app.

Sep 24 16:23:57 iPad /usr/libexec/lsd[70] <Notice>: LaunchServices: Adding com.<bundle>.<identifier> to registration list

No Crash Logs are being recorded.

EDIT:

I have this in my info.plist

<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
<string>com.<bundle>.<identifier></string>

but it's basically com.site.my, I just edited the real name here.

I had the same issue, And was unable to install the ipa. It always ended with an error "Could not inspect the application package." and some warnings in device console

After spending hours, I got it fixed by adding the "Application requires iPhone environment" in info.plist

<key>LSRequiresIPhoneOS</key>
<true/>
