Hello!
I am trying to submit a game (built in Unity) to the store (as a UWP app) but am experiencing issues with regards to the certificate and publisher name.
My test certificate (built in Unity) has a publisher name of "CN=<NAME>"
After building the UWP solution (in Unity) I then associate the app with the store (from within Visual Studio) and this changes the publisher name to "CN=<ID>"
When I then build the store package, I receive the following error...
warning : Publisher name (CN=<ID>) does not match signing certificate subject: CN=<NAME>. Updating Publisher name.
Upon submitting the package to the store, I then finally receive the following error...
Invalid package publisher name: CN=<NAME> (expected: CN=<ID>)
If (during the app association process) I select the certificate from the store, it sets the publisher name to "CN=<NAME>" and the error messages are then the reverse of the above.
Basically, I am unable to perform an error free build and submit the package to the store (although it was working until recently)
The app store id is 9NJ24KCM1NSS
After a little investigation, it seems there was a Visual Studio bug that could cause this. But it was fixed last year and I am using the latest at the time of writing (16.9.5)
So I would be very grateful if someone could look into this please and let me know if it's an issue on my end or with Visual Studio or the store.
Kind regards
David
