Your iOS Development certificate has been revoked

I have submitted my app on the App Store. It is still waiting for review. I got mail:

Your iOS Distribution certificate has been revoked.

Dear Me,

You have revoked your certificate, so it is no longer valid.

Certificate: iOS Development

Team Name: Me

Any provisioning profiles that include this certificate are no longer valid and must be regenerated for future use.

Best regards,

Apple Developer Program Support

I didn't understand what is the reason and what should I do?

Did you try to generate a new certificate? – Ryan Pendleton
You can create new certificates and add it to your project. – Ashok Londhe
while submitting build I have generated new certificate @RyanPendleton – Vinod Jadhav
In most cases, generating a new certificate will revoke your old one. – Ryan Pendleton
@RyanPendleton I think I should create new distribution certificate and resubmit app again – Vinod Jadhav

If you delete/ generate new certificate in Provisioning Portal(Certificates) then you get these types of messages "Your Development Certificate Has Been Revoked - you have revoked your Development certificate and it' s no longer valid".

To overcome this you need to generate provisioning profiles with the newly created distribution certificate, sign the build using the same, recreate the build and resubmit the app for review to AppStore.

Solution for Xcode 8

  1. Xcode Preferences > Accounts
  2. Choose your account
  3. Click 'View Details'
  4. Click 'Download all profiles'
  5. Restart Xcode
  6. This step is optional, meaning that might work without this: Product > press 'alt' button > Clean Build Folder

Had same problem and these steps solved my issue.
