I'm having a problem trying to upgrade an existing store of a Core Data database to a newer model that simply has 1 additional attribute property in an entity. This is not a document based app. Also, not sure if this is significant, but the xcdatamodel and all related files are stored in a framework.

[...]

I tried to go about this two different ways. One was was to include only the newer model file and the mapping file to the build. However, the error I get is:
Error while adding persistent store: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134140 UserInfo=0x3c9030 "Persistent store migration failed, missing mapping model."

You do need to have the relevant data models inside your project, normally stored inside a datamodel bundle...


However, when I include all three files (both model and the mapping), it seems like it's trying to merge the two and ignore the mapping file altogether. The error I get is:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Can't merge models with two different entities named 'SomePrivateEntityName''

This particular problem is normally reasonably easy to fix.
Are you storing your data models in a data model bundle (filename.datamodeld)? You can then specify in Xcode which one is the current version. Assuming this is done, make sure that only one of your data models (the current version) has its target checkbox ticked, but don't tick any of the others. Sometimes you need to un- tick them all and re-tick them, or occasionally I've had to clean a project to get Xcode to accept and obey different ticks. If you have two data models (usually inside a bundle) included in the target and they have some or all of the same entity names inside, you will get this error if both models are being included in the target app.

It seems like your two responses contradict themselves. First, you want me to include all the relavent models. In your second response you want me to only include only the one model. I did specify that the models are part of a framework, so they wouldn't be part of the resources of the app. And if XCode had a physical interface, the clean button would have been worn out a long time ago. If I follow the steps to your second response, i'll go right back to the same error your first response was for. And yes, It is inside a datamodeld with one checked off as the current version. For the record, when I include only the newer datamodel, the error I get is:

Error while adding persistent store: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134130 UserInfo=0x34f0c0 "Persistent store migration failed, missing source managed object model."

I've also tried attaching a copy of the datamodeld package into the resources of my app but it doesn't help.
