When you try to install a IPA that has Swift code from a MDM or
through a URL it doesn't work. It works when you run it through the
Developer profile, but doesnt work when you install it in the above way.
When you look at the log you should see a similar message as shown below.
dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libswiftCore.dylib

For some, the following worked.
Setting Embedded Content Contains Swift Code to YES
Some developers the adding the following to the Runpath worked.
@executable_path/Frameworks
your_target -> Build Settings -> Linking ->
Runpath Search Paths
For others repacking the IPA the following ways worked as mentioned in this article.

As mentioned there do the following using the terminal.
ditto -xk yourIPAFile.ipa /tmp/tempPath
ditto -ck --norsrc /tmp/tempPath NewIPA_file.ipa
rm -r /tmp/tempPath
The only solution that worked for me was Revoking
the Distribution Certificate, creating a new Distribution certificate,
creating a New provisioning profile that works with this certificate.
I did all the above steps manually without the Xocde creating them automatically.
- Create new distribution Certificate.
- Create new provisioning profile.
- Downloading them onto the mac.
- open Xcode -> preferences -> view Accounts and Refreshing downloaded and it worked for me.
I know this solution might not work for some as removing
Distribution profiles would stop the Apps from working. As we can have
two distribution certificates, i used the second one to create and made
it work.
This might happen if the
distribution certificate was created prior to Xcode6 or IOS8 where in a
entity "OU" is missing from the certificate.If you want to check to see
if your certificate has it, please do so by running the following
command
openssl x509 -in ios_distribution.cer -inform DER -text -noout
