Codesign Returned Errsecinternalcomponent in High Sierra

Codesign returned errSecInternalComponent in High Sierra

I too got the same error from code signing. It seems to be mostly bcoz of keychain access. It is not just enough that keychain has to be in unlocked state as suggested in most of the post.

I did the following steps to resolve this.

1. Let the Login (or wherever your code signing identity is present) Keychain be in Locked state. To do it open Keychain Access, right click the login keychain and select 'Lock Keychain "login"'.

2. Execute the command line.

3. Code Sign will prompt for keychain password (snapshot attached below). Enter the password.
4. After this, command will succeed.

It seems command line needs the password to be given when it is prompted. Otherwise, the error keeps on coming even when the keychain is in unlocked state.

Hope it helps.

Xcode Command /usr/bin/codesign failed with exit code 1 : errSecInternalComponent

Open Keychain Access, then in the File menu select Lock All Keychains.

Then go back to Xcode and clean and rebuild. It will prompt you for your password again to unlock the keychain.

After this, assuming you have no other compile issues, it will succeed!

Xcode Command CodeSign failed with non zero when deploying to device

I got same issue , my certificates was created automatically but Device Udid does not create.
then check your device Udid is exist on your Apple developer Account and also check your Bundle identifier?

// hope its works for you thanks

command/usr/bin/codesign failed with exit code 1- code sign error

You almost made it on your own, but in the end there seems to be something wrong with your profile.

First I would recommend a tool to "look inside" the profile to make sure it's the right one: http://furbo.org/2013/11/02/a-quick-look-plug-in-for-provisioning/

This will just add some more information about the profile, when selecting it in Finder and pressing space (Quick Look).

Check your Xcode Preferences:

1. Xcode Perferences (CMD + ,)
2. Accounts
3. Select your account on the left
4. Select view details on the bottom right
5. Refresh (using the small button on the bottom left)

Xcode stores the profiles in ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles

If your distribution profile is not in there, double click on it.

Then it should appear in that folder, but with a hashed name, e.g. 1edf8f42-fd1c-48a9-8938-754cdf6f7f41.mobileprovision at this point the Quick Look plugin comes in handy :-)

Next, check your Project Settings:

1. select the target (not project) you want to build in Xcode
2. switch to build settings
3. look for the "Code Signing" section
4. check if the correct profile is selected under "Provisioning Profile" => "Release"

---

Next, check your Scheme Settings:

1. select Product menu
2. open scheme submenu
3. select edit scheme...
4. select "Archive" on the left
5. Build configuration should be set to "Release"

---

Next, check the Keychain Access Trust settings:

1. open keychain access (spotlight => keychain)
2. select login
3. click on Certificates
4. look for iPhone Distribution: Elena Carrasco (8HE2MJLM25) on the right
5. right click, select "Get Info"
6. open "Trust" section
7. set to "Use System Defaults"
8. repeat steps 5 to 7 for Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate Authority

---

Next, check the Keychain Access private key Access Control:

1. repeat steps 1 to 4 from previous check
2. expand the profile to make your private key visible
3. right click on the private key, select "Get Info"
4. switch to "Access Control"
5. select "Confirm before allowing access"
6. use the "+" button to add "codesign" (normally located in /usr/bin/codesign)
   
   Hint: if it doesn't show up in the file browser, use cmd + shift + g to enter the path manually
7. when using Carthage: add /usr/bin/productbuild here as well (thx to DesignatedNerd)
8. "Save Changes"

Hope one of this does trick for you!

Update (4/22/16):

I just found a very nice explanation about the whole code sign process (it's really worth reading):
