Build got stuck at notarizing the Mac app for more than an hour.

Hey, I am in the final stage of finishing my app. Thanks for the write-up about Code Signing on Mac. I followed and set all the proper environment variables, but my build process takes way too long for notarizing it.

This is the point where the build got stuck.

Running [tauri_bundler::bundle::common] Command `xcrun  notarytool submit ....

When I checked my notarization log, it showed zero. I am confused; does this mean Tauri hasn't even started the process?

 *** Warning: altool has been deprecated for notarization and starting in late 2023 will no longer be supported by the Apple notary service. You should start using notarytool to notarize your software. 

Notarization History - page 0

No items found.

UPDATE:

Okay, my bad. I used xcrun notarytool history and got the list. It turns out all of them are in progress, and the oldest one has been more than 4 hours. Is this normal?

Sometimes yes. If none of your apps were ever notarized before and/or your apps are fairly large in size it may take a while. Especially considering that the notarization servers' performance is well, let's call it fluctuating...

Also on the same boat. Did the notarization process eventually complete?

Yes it does. Just hang in there.

Thanks @luis-cicada, and did it take hours for every release after that or just the first one?

Just the first time.

Hey, @luis-cicada it worked finally. Thanks. Took 2 days but eventually worked, now it completes fairly quickly. I don't know whether running on the weekend had anything to do with it.

Folks, is there a way to make notarization process emit some logs, any logs, please? When it takes long, it is not actually clear what is going on.
