App crashes after com.apple.security.app-sandbox true added

[j1exus]

electron-builder:

• 21.1.0:

target:

• mas:

I'm trying to build mas target and upload to mac store.

Without com.apple.security.app-sandbox true in entitlements.mas.plist and entitlements.mas.inherit.plist .app from /mas/ folder launches successful.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

same thing here. If I do not provide any entitlements it works fine locally (and ofc it is refused by Apple) because it uses the template residing in /node_modules/app-builder-lib/templates/entitlements.mac.plist. However, if I add com.apple.security.app-sandbox like it was suggested as a workaround in this issue, the app crashes on start. My current version of electron-builder is 22.4.0

I am facing similar issue if "com.apple.security.app-sandbox" is added in entitlements (any parent or child) then the app just crashes. If i don't include this then app runs fine. Please note it is not at all related to signing, the app runs fine even signed or unsigned. Basically without app-sandbox the app can't be uploaded to mac store so basically its a blocker.
