Validating credentials Error for building standand alone app

After running exp build:ios -c and following the prompts I get the following error.

[exp] Error validating credentials. You may need to clear them (with '-c') and try again. [exp] Unable to validate credentials. Request ID 21b31390-eb4e-11e7-9218-8548f12bee92, message: Internal error occurred. Please try again in a few minutes or contact support.

Still having issues with validating credentials but I have narrowed it down to an issue with my personal computer.
This is the output from my terminal

can you try setting the EXPO_DEBUG env var to "true" and including the debug output generated by that?

I’m seeing the same issue using version 47.2.4

When I run the command EXPO_DEBUG=true exp build:ios I get the following error:

[exp] Validating Credentials...

@noxee Hi, can you please try with the latest version 47.2.11

Finally got an opportunity to try with DEBUG enabled

Updated to the latest Exp CLI and this is the output. Looks like I am validated as a user but it is looking for an app.

Hi Stan, can you try again with exp 47.3.3 and if it doesn’t work, the output of it also with EXPO_DEBUG=true.

Updated and i have the same issue… What is the process to create the bundle id?

@stanwilsonjr Sorry about that, I think I published a version incorrectly. Can you try again with the newest version. I also made it a bit more lenient about when to make the app (its part of the whole pipeline)

@edgar Same issue with 47.3.5

@stanwilsonjr Thanks for your patience, I have a reproducible test case now, so I am fixing it now. Will have a fix available soon, probably within the hour.

Thanks man … may be able to hop back in this in the morning

@stanwilsonjr sure thing, its 47.3.6 when you get a chance

Things look good App ID was generated and I was able to generate an .ipa file. Thanks for your help and I will attempt to add to Test Flight.

Hi, please make new forum posts when you have your own, separate issues.

This means you already have a provisioning profile, please remove it from developer.apple.com and then try again with -c so that you start from a clean slate.

Hey Guys, same issue here
EXPO_DEBUG=true exp build:ios
