Hello! There's an error in a user profile I'm generating to configure an wireless internet connection. When I try to import it the Profile Manager tells me there's an error, and if I try to use the profiles utility I get the following error:
$ profiles -v -I -F ./xxx.mobileconfig profiles: verbose mode ON profiles: using user name = xxx profiles install profile xxx.mobileconfig for user: xxx profiles install for file: 'xxx.mobileconfig' and user:'xxx' returned 3840 (The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format.) profiles: returned error: 3840 failThis is the error you get if you try to import any file that's not valid, from an .mp3 file to a proper .mobileconfig file with a missing closing tag, so it's not very helpful.
I've checked for obvious errors, like whether it's correct XML, whether there are any weird characters or whatever - didn't find anything. I've tried comparing it to a correct file but I haven't been able to find anything yet. Is there any way to get more detail about what's wrong? Some sort of tool, or at least the specification for these files? Thanks
EDIT: Okay, I found the specification (https://developer.apple.com/library/content/featuredarticles/iPhoneConfigurationProfileRef/Introduction/Introduction.html), I'm going to look into this.
