"Constrained by certificate" on development certificate

Guys,

You've probably heard this a 1000 times before. I've tried to research this, but with no joy.

I have acquired a developer certificate which is bound to the IMEI using DevCertRequest.

I have acquired a protected UID for my app and am using it in the mmp/pkg file to compile and package the sis file.

I get Unable to install Constrained by certificate message when trying to install to the 3250.

Am I missing something here ??:confused:

Is the IMEI that you have given for DevCertRequest and the IMEI of your 3250 are the same.?

Peter

Absolutely. I even requested another dev cert to make sure. No difference (

I found out by using *#06# on the 3250 )

Is there any way to confirm the IMEI info embedded in the certificate ??

can you post your PKG file here.? Most of the cases such error occurs when the IMEI is different.
Look at this web page

AFAIK there is no way.

Yes..i have seen that page ) Thanks.

Your PKG file seems to ok.

You may read the earlier link once more and check for every reasons that Antony had said about.


And as a test you can try upload your sis file to this site.

Since no one has mentioned it, Dev. certs constrain capabilities too. Make sure you haven't given your DLLs ALL-TCB or something.

Thanks guys..I will double check stuff, although i'm pretty certain my IMEI is correct.

Ok...I have found the problem. When I was requesting the Dev. Cert I had specified ReadDeviceData/NetworkServices instead of ReadUserData/NetworkServices (time to step away from the code!).

So in short it was a mismatch between the capabilities in the certificate and the capabilities in the actual binaries.

All useful information for us all I guess.

I'm getting an 'Unable to Install' message using the pkg file posted above, so I'll have to look closer into this.

It would be cool if there was a log somewhere on the device that had logged the installation failure in more detail.

Ok..further on the "Unable to install". I changed the secureid in the mmp file to be the same as UID3. As below :

[U]BEFORE[/U]

UID 0x0 0x2000C7D9
SECUREID 0

[U]AFTER[/U]

UID 0x0 0x2000C7D9
SECUREID 0x2000C7D9

Further on this (amazing how little details make a difference to newbies). This UID is sourced from symbiansigned.com and is in the 'protected range'. When Carbide first creates your project it assigns a UID3 in the unprotected range.

Whenever you make any change in your .mmp file, you need to re-import/re-build your project.

Also find out occurrences of [B]"Unable to Install"[/B] from Antony's blog.

I hope this will help you.
