Missing dSYM warning (not the reason an upload fails)

iOS / Xcode · last reviewed 2026-11-10

The error looks like this

warning: exportArchive Upload Symbols Failed. The archive did not include a dSYM for the OpenSSL.framework with the UUIDs [ABC]. Ensure that the archive's dSYM folder includes a DWARF file for OpenSSL.framework with the expected UUIDs.

Why it happens

A prebuilt framework ships without debug symbols. This is only a warning: crash reports for that framework will not be symbolicated.

How to fix it

  1. Ignore it for the upload — look for a different error if the upload failed.
  2. To silence it, use a version of that framework that ships dSYMs.

Catch it before you build

Most release errors come from project settings you can check in seconds — signing, SDK levels, privacy manifests, permissions, push and login setup.
