Unable to debug MAUI app on iPhone device

Mattywarr 0

I am having issue debugging a MAUI app on my iPhone physical device.

The code runs and deploys fine on Simulator, however I get this error.

file with invalid attached data: Disallowed xattr com.apple.FinderInfo found on /Users/matthewwarr/Documents/GitHub/RackEmApp_Mobile/RackEmAppMobile/bin/Debug/net8.0-ios/ios-arm64/RackEmAppMobile.app /Users/matthewwarr/Documents/GitHub/RackEmApp_Mobile/RackEmAppMobile/bin/Debug/net8.0-ios/ios-arm64/RackEmAppMobile.app: resource fork, Finder information, or similar detritus not allowed

I have done a lot of research in setting xcattr but none of the commands seem to work.

I get this issue when trying to deploy to the phone through Visual Studio 2022 (17.8.3) as well as Visual Studio Mac 17.6.7, and also Visual Studio Code with the C# and Maui extensions installed.

Full logs below. Anyone able to shed any light?

The error you got is an old issue about code sign on Apple's Q&A.

For further investigation, could you provide the following information?

What's the detailed Xcode version?

What's the detailed iOS version of your device?

Are there any prompts to install the components when you open Xcode?

Do you use automatic Mac provisioning to test the app on your device? Or do you create a development provisioning profile manually? Please see Device provisioning for .NET MAUI apps on iOS - .NET MAUI | Microsoft Learn

XCode is 15.1 (15C65)

iOS is 17.1.2

No prompts opening Xcode. I can create a new xcode project and run/debug on the device with the default 'Hello World' template.

Automatic provisioning is set. .csproj file has this.

    <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)'=='net8.0-ios'">
      <CodesignKey>Apple Development: Created via API (J24PJGDN53)</CodesignKey>
      <CodesignProvision>VS: com.rackemapp.mobileapp Development</CodesignProvision>
      <ProvisioningType>automatic</ProvisioningType>
    </PropertyGroup>

It means that the issue only occurs in your current project, right? Do you enable any capabilities for your app, such as iCloud, HealthKit and so on? For more details, please see iOS capabilities - .NET MAUI | Microsoft Learn
