I want to publish an Java application into Apple Store. The apple documentation recommends to use
$ xcrun altool --validate-app -f file -t platform -u username [-p password] [--output-format xml]
$ xcrun altool --upload-app -f file -t platform -u username [-p password] [—output-format xml]
First I tried to use a dmg file, but I always got an error. Then I found in internet that I should use a zip file. When using the zip, I got this error:
xcrun altool --validate-app --file DbSchemaMac.zip -t osx --username "..." --password "..." 2020-11-27 18:34:21.517 altool[22912:4098310] *** Error: Unable to validate archive 'DbSchemaMac.zip': ( "Error Domain=ITunesSoftwareServiceErrorDomain Code=-20008 "The Info.plist indicates an iOS app, but submitting a pkg or mpkg." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=The Info.plist indicates an iOS app, but submitting a pkg or mpkg., NSLocalizedFailureReason=Unable to validate your application.}" )
The Info.plist looks like here. What could be wrong?
