ipa file is generated in the release mode but not in ad-hoc mode

I am trying to generate my ipa via Mac agent in Visual Studio. When I choose the release mode, it is ok and the Visual Studio shows me this message:

The ipa file should be visibile on the build server.

But when I try it in ad-hoc mode, it just tells me this error:

ipa file was not generated. please check the project configuration

I tried the different solutions, for example, I change some configurations in info.plist. But the error is still there. Do you have any suggestion?

After investigating the problem for some hours I found - in my case - there were some problem with my Apple developer account handling in Visual Studio and that's why VS could not find any certificates to sign / generate ipa.

So, pls check your Apple developer account settings in VS options (Tools/Options/Xamarin/Apple accounts) After reentering my credentials IPA is generated in my case.

Ensure that you have enabled the build in the project configuration.

  • open project properties
  • select iOS IPA Options
  • change configuration to Ad-Hoc
  • change platform to iPhone
  • enable Build ad-hoc/enterprise package (IPA)
