Unable to deploy AppCenter2.ipa to Mobile First Application Center

Following https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-7-0/moving-production/distributing-mobile-applications-application-center/

When we build the IBMAppCenter project in MobileFirst Studio (v7) then Xcode (6), uploading the resulting AppCenter2.ipa file results in a simple red "X" and the message "File AppCenter2.ipa not uploaded".

The MobileFirst Server error log has no errors or any messages at all when this occurs, so we can find no details on what the failure might have been.

Note that we had to build the ipa file with xcodebuild as it seems Xcode 6 no longer allows us to do so from the IDE.

Also note that in Studio, instead of "Run As > Build and Deploy", which wasn't in the menu exactly, our developer eventually chose "Run As > Xcode", which seemed to be the only option that produced a non-trivial result. (I'll update with exact wording when I'm able to clarify with him. I don't have Studio installed myself.)

(Some of that, like the SRVE0255E, is happening repeatedly independent of this application upload attempt.)

Update 2: Also couldn't delete another application that was already installed, nor overwrite it with a new one. Same UI error with nothing logged. Uninstalled Application Center enterprise apps and reinstalled them, and now can't install any apps. Again, still with no errors logged at all.

As suggested by Georg Sander in the comments:

Please contact IBM support to submit the full log file! If the trace specification is set as above and you see absolutely nothing in the log file, then some firewall blocks the access to App Center and it is not reached at all. If it is reached, then for sure you have messages in the log file about App Center.

It seems that this question is going nowhere and will require deeper investigation. Please open a PMR (support ticket) so that the development team will be able to help you, either by receiving your logs or by having a remote session with you to debug this issue.

There appears to be no feasible workaround to provide.
