Try version 1.2.0 and report your results.

I've tried version 1.2.0, but am having the same problem as described above - after running ./ios-deploy -b xxxxxx.app, it gets to about 28 - 32% complete then fails with the following error when trying to copy MyApp to the device:

[28%] Copying /Users/InstallLocation/ios-deploy/ios-deploy/MyApp.app/MyApp to device
Assertion failed: (AMDeviceSecureTransferPath(0, device, url, options, transfer_callback, 0)==0), function handle_device, file ios-deploy.c, line 1378.
...

I can confirm that using other tools (Xcode6 and Apple Configurator) to deploy the app, it deploys just fine.

The problem only seems to be on the iOS7 devices / iOS8 devices seem to work fine.

Hi All,
After several tests, I found the following:
a. These failures happen when Xcode 6.0 is up and running - Fix: Close Xcode and retry
b. lldb hangs with Xcode 6.0 when -L is used - Fix: in my fork. Asked for pull request
c. Xcode 5.1.1 does not support -L option. ios-deploy and Xcode 6.0 works fine with both iOS 7.1 and 8.0 devices
d. If lldb hangs or get failures, killall lldb and retry. Most probably you were in situation a.

These are my observations and tests.

Hi Senthilmanick for your quick reply. I've tried you're suggested solutions but none of them seemed to fix the issue:

a. I tried closing Xcode 6.0 and redeploying it, but no luck. I then restarted my computer and tried it again (without opening Xcode)
b. I'm not currently using the -L flag
c. I ran the 'killall lldb' command but there are no matching processes found

Any further help would be greatly appreciated!

[shazron]

Try to filter for lldb in the Activity Monitor app and kill any lldb processes.

Also, version 1.3.0 has been published with lots of bug fixes (thanks @senthilmanick). Try it out.

Hi all,

I have the same problem with my application and after google it for a while without any luck I remembered that I have changed the application name on the config.xml file in order to use a Japanese name as for the customer's requirements. Long story short after I changed the name back to english it worked without any type of problem.

I suppose until something can be done about this bug I will have to change the name manually on Xcode before compiling the final version.

[shazron]

That's a good clue, thanks @molinadavid -- the code is probably not handling non-ASCII characters well

[ilyakar]

Hi. How close are you guys to fixing this issue? My app name is Cityfé and I also get the following error: Assertion failed: (AMDeviceSecureTransferPath(0, device, url, options, transfer_callback, 0)==0), function handle_device, file ios-deploy.c, line 1550.
