I agree. ios deployment can be an irritating experience, and ad-hoc deployment (deploying out of the app store) can also be annoying, at times. If I didn't do this fairly frequently, and have to fight with it occasionally, today would have been a lot longer and uglier. On Mon, Aug 8, 2016 at

Re: [SQL] placeholders work for SQLite but not for mySQL

SQLite is very forgiving about what data type it accepts for a column. It will pretty much accept anything no matter what the defined data type is. mySQL on the other hand rejects anything that doesn't match the declared data type. That would explain the difference between the two systems. It

Check to see if the dev certificate or the provisioning profile have expired. Also if you delete the old dev certificate and create a new one then you have to reset the provisioning profiles(edit nothing and save) for all your dev provision profiles. Any monkeying with provisioning profiles
