Remote Building on Mac fails

Hello everyone!

We got a bit of an issue with packaging an iOS game, while using Remote build on a Mac device. We got it all set up, everything works fine up to the point, where the build fails, and says that the certificate is not installed in the System Keychain on the Mac device. However that’s not true. It is indeed installed (the same .cer) and it’s enabled to always trust incoming connections. Here’s the log:

Anybody has ever seen something like this? Is there a workaround to finally be able to build the game for iOS?

Answering my own question. I managed to get it working by not just allowing the cert to be used by allowing “All Trusted”.

Steps to fix the issue:

1, Open up Keychain Access on the Mac device.
    2, Select System Keychain and in the categories select "Key" instead of cert.
    3, Select the needed key, and right click -» Get Info -» Under "Access Control" select "Allow All Applications to access this item" 
    4, Profit.

Writing here, in case someone has the same issue.
