Xcode 26 Causing StoreKit Fiasco for macOS?

I submitted my last macOS application with IAP on Oct. 23rd, 2025. I was able to test-purchase a non-consumable product with the StoreKit configuration file at that time. These days, every time I test a new macOS application with the configuration file, a purchase process fails. The thing is they all now fail if I test the store with existing applications that were once working. Xcode shows the following debugging error.

Purchase failed with error: systemError(Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process." UserInfo={AMSDescription=An unknown error occurred. Please try again., AMSURL=http://localhost:53272/WebObjects/MZBuy.woa/wa/inAppBuy, NSDebugDescription=The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process., AMSStatusCode=200, AMSServerPayload={

All my iOS apps don't exhibit the same problem. This StoreKit fiasco only happens for macOS applications. And I'm thinking that it all started to occur after I began using Xcode 26. Not a single line of code has changed. But the applications that were once able to process IAP all now fail. And I'm suspecting that it's Xcode 26 that is responsible for this failure. My Xcode version is 26.2, by the way. Any macOS application developer experiencing the same problem?

I'm shock to find out that it's not Xcode 26.2 that has caused the IAP fiasco for macOS applications. I ran the latest Mac App Store app that I have submitted with Xcode 16.4. I get the same purchase error.

There was a fix in the following release https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-26_4-release-notes#Resolved-Issues

Please retry and if still reproducible please file a feedback assistant with a sysdiagnose and screen recording.



Thank you

Thank you, App Store Commerce Engineer. I'm not ready to update my macOS to 26 for now. Well, I have to sleep on it.
