Meaning

Each upload needs a unique, increasing build number per version. CI should set it automatically (agvtool or CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION from the run number).

Common causes

  • Build number not incremented
  • Re-uploading the same archive
  • Two pipelines using the same number

⚡ Quick fix

  1. Increment CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION
  2. Automate it in CI
  3. Check existing builds in TestFlight

Detailed fix by platform

Shell

  1. swift
    agvtool new-version -all $GITHUB_RUN_NUMBER
# or: xcodebuild ... CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION=$GITHUB_RUN_NUMBER

How to diagnose

  1. Number — Used before?
  2. CI — Auto-increment?
