I am running into a strange problem while trying to create a
keychain with SecKeychainCreate. I keep getting
errKCDuplicateKeychain. Here is how it happens:
My application creates a keychain in a specific location. I then
open the Keychain Access and delete file and reference of that
keychain while my application is still running. I try to create
another keychain and I get the error. In the Apple Keychain Access
main window I see an item with the same name as the keychain I
tried to create but there is no icon to it. I can only delete it
from the Keychain List under the "Edit" menu.
If I quit my application after I delete the keychain and try to
create a new one it will work. But it seems as long as my
application is still running I can't create this keychain.
Has any one run into a similar problem? Any ideas why it happens
and is there a work around it?
This is most likely happening because your application still has an
active reference to the previously-created keychain (such as the
reference returned in the last argument to SecKeychainCreate, or
possibly an unreleased reference in a SecKeychainCallbackInfo which
was handed to your application's callback function, or in an array
returned by SecKeychainCopySearchList.) Once you release all the
active references, you should be able to re-create the deleted keychain.
