Unable to lookup the settings for submission for the application at this time due to a general error

Question

When I try upload my app to app store I get the following error: "Unable to lookup the settings for submission for the application at this time due to a general error". Have anyone ever get this message? Is it due to an Apple developer portal problem?

IDEDistribution.critical.log:

2017-01-06 15:32:14 +0000  The store submission configuration response failed with errors: (

Answer 1

I have found the solution, before uploading the app by xcode, you should create the app at http://itunesconnect.apple.com/

Answer 2

I had the same issue, and after playing around I realized that when updating a new version of an app, the "Bundle ID" must match the original version "Bundle ID".

Matching the Bundle ID to my version 1.0 upload solved the problem.

Answer 3

I got the same problem, and I realized I made spelling mistake of bundle Id...
