Ah! Yes, I'm sorry, I think I know what's going on. I just got this project set up with ad-hoc distro, and the PP is probably incorrect (Xcode crashes when going to visit my account prefs to refresh certs).
Perhaps Xcode could check when it gets that error to see if the build has the entitlement set, and display a more specific error message?
Anyway, thanks, that was the problem.

That entitlement is absent from release builds, which is why you can't debug other people's released apps. That's the only thing I can think of that would make something that can finger-launch die when you try to launch it in the debugger.

If you look in the device console around the time of the launch, you'll see some messages from debugserver saying it is launching the process and then if you are lucky some message from some system service saying why it is denying the launch attempt. That might give you some insight into what's going on.
