React Native EXPO Apple upload fail [closed]

Question

I created the app through Expo. I uploaded the ipa through the Application Loader, and it was rejected as the message below. What is the problem?

This bundle is invalid - The Info.plist file for /Payload/ExpoKitApp.app/FacebookSDKStrings.bundle is missing or could not be read.

Invalid Bundle - The bundle at ‘/Payload/ExpoKitApp.app/FacebookSDKStrings.bundle’ does not contain a bundle executable.

I'm having the exact same problem and my app doesn't use React Native EXPO. I think there is an issue with AppStoreConnect at the moment. This is not related to Expo. It may be a general issue. I tried uploading the bundle many times. The same exact app yesterday was accepted just fine, and today I have this problem. I changed no code at all, so this is 100% an issue on the Apple side. – Intermediacy

Same issues. I think this was a policy change as of 24 hrs. Looking into what's wrong - does this happen across all Expo builds? I do have a dependency of react-native-fbsdk – Mikes

Also have the same issue, two separate accounts. I uploaded a build this morning and it was ok. Let's wait and see. Native app btw, just using Facebook frameworks – Pyuria

I could resolve the issue by renaming FacebookSDKStrings.bundle to FacebookSDKStrings located in "Pods/Pods/FBSDKCoreKit/Resources/" – Conlan

Answer 1

The issue is in the AppStoreConnect, as @Axy said, yesterday upload was fine, and I try to do today, I receive same error related Facebook bundle, nothing I've changed in my end,

It is an Apple related issue.

Update: Issue has been resolved, I able to upload my app successfully to the AppStoreConnect.

Answer 2

In my case, I resolved this issue by resetting pods.

1. Remove Pods folder.
2. pod cache clear --all
3. pod install
4. Create archive then upload it.

Builds are now being accepted without any changes. It looks like clearing your cocoapod cache was a coincidence. – Files

Answer 3

I was facing the same issue from early morning. For a quick fix, on your Xcode workspace check the below path,

Pods/FBSDKCoreKit/Resources

you will find a FacebookSDKStrings.bundle, remove the extension bundle it will be changed to folder structure FacebookSDKStrings. Now clean the build and Archive it will be uploaded successfully.

Those strings are used for internationalization. Does this change affect their use in any production apps? – Voncile
