Unable to symbolicate frameworks sometimes

535 views Asked by At

I am completely at a loss on this one. I was able to symbolicate one of my crash reports (obtained from a user submitting it via the app) and it looked like this:

Thread 0 Crashed:
0   libobjc.A.dylib                     0x360a3fbc objc_msgSend + 16
1   libobjc.A.dylib                     0x360a50c5 _objc_rootRelease + 37

9   [App Name]                          0x00002463 main (main.m:54)

However all of the rest of the crash reports look like this after being symbolicated:

Thread 0 Crashed:

6   CoreFoundation                      0x37d1b3a5 0x37d0c000 + 62373
7   GraphicsServices                    0x37af2fcd 0x37aef000 + 16333
8   UIKit                               0x3189b743 0x3186a000 + 202563
9   [App Name]                          0x00002463 main (main.m:54)

Why do CoreFoundation, UIKit, etc. symbolicate in the first instance but not for the rest?

NOTE: I do have the original archive (that was submitted to the app store) and these are being symbolicated within Xcode 4.2 simply by dragging it into the organizer.

You most likely do not have the symbols on your Mac of the iOS version that crashed.

Check the iOS Version of the crash report (shows up in the top part of the report) and then check if you have the symbols for this iOS version here: /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport.
