Created a .pkg file in Xcode 4 and cannot run it on my computer

Question

I created a .pkg file of my Mac app using XCode 4. I installed it using the terminal successfully, however when I double click on the .pkg file, I get a message that says, "... can't be installed on this computer".

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

EDIT: This is the error message that I get. I created package by going to Product->Archive. Then in the Organizer I clicked Share->Mac OSX App Store Package(.pkg) and then save the package to the desktop.

This is what's inside the package.

Furthermore, I've inspected the build settings between XCode 3 and 4 is the following

XCode 3

Path to Link Map File 
Debug           build/Alarm Pro.build/Debug/Alarm Pro.build/Alarm Pro-LinkMap--x86_64.txt
Release        build/Alarm Pro.build/Release/Alarm Pro.build/Alarm Pro-LinkMap--i386.txt

XCode 4

Path to Link Map File 
Debug           build/Alarm Pro.build/Debug/Alarm Pro.build/Alarm Pro-LinkMap--x86_64.txt
Release        build/Alarm Pro.build/Release/Alarm Pro.build/Alarm Pro-LinkMap--x86_64.txt

Answer 1

It is probably a nasty bug in Xcode4 ... the interface between xcode and packagemaker is not working correctly ... having said that, if u use Packagemaker stand-alone, u will be able to create a working package ... voila! :-)))

Answer 2

You can't install 32bit packages on 64bit systems, and vice versa. Go into the Xcode inspector and change the base SDK to the target system or your system.

Upgrade your SDK's and Xcode to the latest version. This has resolved problems for me in the past.

Clean your project, then build/archive it when you change the settings.
