iTunes Connect: There was an error importing this build

Viewed 13071

I'm working on an iOS app that last week had a build successfully uploaded to iTunes Connect and then distributed for testing via TestFlight.

This week, I updated to Xcode 7.3 and now when I update the same project (with changes just for Swift 2.2 compatibility and some other bug fixes I did), I am able to archive and submit the build through Xcode, but then instead of processing and receiving an email that the build is ready to test, the build shows up in iTunes Connect like this, with the displayed error message. I don't receive any email or other error message about what could be wrong:

I haven't found any other solutions searching online about this issue. I've gotten in contact with Apple and the issue has been escalated but haven't heard back yet.

Update - Apple has escalated to engineering, awaiting response.

Update 2 - Apple replied that this is a known issue with Xcode 7.3 and Bitcode, see answer below for solution.

Just in case if aforementioned solution not worked for you try the following. Cause none of the listed solution worked for me.

  1. Check for the Xcode Version. It should not be a BETA release.
  2. If still getting issue the upload it using Application Loader. Don't use CMD + Space to launch Application Loader. It might open old or different version Application Loader. Which leads you to ambiguous bugs. Launch from the Xcode menu Xcode -> Open developer tool -> Application Loader solves the problem. Please make sure you do it from the version of the Xcode that you used to build your app.

Cheers!! :)

Give it some time(an hour or two). It auto-solves.

May or may not work be a good advice, but this is what worked for me.
