RoboVM crash after splash screen on iPhone

I was trying to put an iOS app on my iPhone with RoboVM. The app is working in my iOS simulator, but when I try on the phone the app simply crashes after the splash screen.

I also got this error:

03/06/14 8:40:38 PM: [ERROR] AppLauncher failed with an exception:
03/06/14 8:40:38 PM: [ERROR] java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected response from debugserver: $X00;description:5465726d696e617465642064756520746f207369676e616c2036;#00

03/06/14 8:40:38 PM: [ERROR]    at org.robovm.compiler.target.ios.AppLauncherProcess$1.run(AppLauncherProcess.java:67)

I'm on iOS 8 and I use LibGDX.

How can I solve this problem?

OK, for my case, I've found a solution. This error message seems to be nothing more than a failed assert thrown by the iOS system (at least in my case; and the error description number $X00;description:5465726d696e617465642064756520746f207369676e616c2036;#00 is exactly the same). The exact failed assert was not being shown or detailed when running from the device, but when I realized (that's dumb from me, I know, but I tend to develop just for Android) that I could launch the XCode simulator (XCode 6, iOS8) from Eclipse, I saw a clear message when running the app:

Assertion failed! File: .../libgdx/gdx/jni/Box2D/Collision/Shapes/b2ChainShape.cpp, Line 63. Expression: b2DistanceSquared(v1, v2) > 0.005f * 0.005f

The crash was solved by fixing this Box2D related problem; in this case it was that I was creating a Loop specifying both start and end vertices at the same position, while the documentation says this must not be done when specifying a looped b2ChainShape (which will be closed automatically). I wasn't getting this problem with the Android Box2D binary; it either does not have the assertion messages enabled, or it's ignoring the fact I was trying to create a looped chain in a wrong way. I suggest you debug your app with the latest XCode, LibGDX (stable 1.4.1 as of yesterday) and RoboVM version (1.0.0-alpha-4 for the time being), and try to understand any assertion failed messages you may get, which will not show up when running from the device.

Update your roboVM version to 1.0.0-alpha-04 or newer
