Adobe Air app for iOS only works in interpreter mode?

I have an Adobe Air application that I am packaging for iOS.

If the target is ipa-debug-interpreter or ipa-test-interpreter the app works just fine. However, any other target it crashes when trying to use assets. I have seen the following exception:

[Fault] exception, information=ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable FlexVersion is not defined.
Fault, SpriteAsset() at SpriteAsset.as:131
131               if (appDomain.hasDefinition("mx.core::FlexVersion"))

Other times it will crash with no stack.

Why would it only work when the target includes interpreter?

Packaging with interpreter is faster than the regular debug packaging (not that I've ever noticed a timetable difference). I would hazard a guess that for it to be faster it must bypass certain processes which the normal debug would check for. From the type of error you're getting I would suggest you double check your manifest XML file for missing packages and/or the version of the AIR SDK you are targeting. Hope this provides some help.

EDIT: May also be worth revision which version of the FLEX SDK you are targeting and this can cause issues of this kind.
