Notarization submissions stuck "In Progress" for 24+ hours — first-time notarization, Team VZUUDKF3MW

Two notarization submissions have been stuck in "In Progress" for over 20 hours with no result. These are the first notarization submissions ever made by this developer account (Team ID: VZUUDKF3MW).

Submission IDs:

  • e2fff6a7-f270-421f-abc9-2419b00fc18c (submitted 2026-09-09 03:43:17 UTC)
  • 2eef5754-1e0f-4de2-be32-9c3ee4fdd7b4 (submitted 2026-09-09 06:17:21 UTC)

xcrun notarytool info <id> still returns: status: In Progress xcrun notarytool log <id> returns: "Submission log is not yet available or submissionId does not exist"

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Sign a self-contained app bundle with a Developer ID Application certificate, hardened runtime (--options runtime), and a secure timestamp.
  2. Verify: codesign --verify --deep --strict passes; spctl -a -t exec reports "Unnotarized Developer ID" (expected pre-notarization state).
  3. ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent "MyApp.app" upload.zip
  4. xcrun notarytool submit upload.zip --keychain-profile <profile> --wait
  5. The command waits indefinitely. Status never leaves "In Progress".

Expected: notarization completes within a few minutes. Actual: "In Progress" for 20+ hours, no log produced, no error returned.

The notarytool credentials are valid (xcrun notarytool history succeeds). The signature meets all documented prerequisites. This appears to be a backend processing delay affecting first-time submissions from a newly enrolled team.
