The specified item could not be found in the keychain code -25300

[EllisMatusica]

Description

After a recent mac update to macOS 14.1.1, i began receiving the following exception as soon as i run the app on any physical device:

ItemNotFoundException (SecureStorageException(message: Them item was not found in the keychain., recoverySuggestion: An unknown exception occurred. Please take a look at https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-flutter/issues to see if there are any existing issues that match your scenario, and file an issue with the details of the bug if there isn't., underlyingException: SecurityFrameworkError: {code: -25300, message: The specified item could not be found in the keychain.}))

This is occurring before my Sign in page loads on app start. The sign in page uses the amplify prebuilt Authenticator Sign in page.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Amplify package versions:
amplify_auth_cognito: ^1.0.0
amplify_flutter: ^1.0.0
amplify_datastore: ^1.0.0-supports-only-mobile
amplify_api: ^1.0.0
amplify_storage_s3: ^1.0.0
amplify_authenticator: ^1.0.0

Flutter version:
3.10.5

Devices tested on:
iPhone 12 running iOS 17.1.1,
iPhone 7 running iOS 14.5.1,
iPhone X running iOS 15.7.

edit: After some more testing I've found that the app crashes in debug mode as soon as the Authenticator widget is built in android and iOS. However on Android i get the error: Unauthenticated access is not supported for this identity pool immediately before sign in page appears. What does work is using flutter run in terminal and running it that way, still not sure what the cause of these errors are.

I'm getting this on simulator for iOS development as well. I've enabled keychain sharing in xCode.

The issue does not occur when building and running from Flutter or xCode without debug - it does happen as soon as I run in debug mode.

I spent some time with the folks from AWS (thank you!) but neither of us could recreate the issue on a clean flutter app with boiler plate code. I did notice some extended attributes (com.apple.provenance ) on the new boiler plate folder and updated instructions in getting setup here pertaining to keyChain sharing in xCode: https://pub.dev/packages/amplify_authenticator/example

I do not know what caused this but what ended up working after trying to rebuild the app was:

1. clean check out of my repo
2. sudo xattr -dr com.apple.provenance REPO_FOLDER
3. cd REPO_FOLDER; amplify pull
4. Follow https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/project-setup/platform-setup/q/platform/flutter/#enable-keychain to ensure build target is ios 13.0 and keychain sharing is now enabled in xCode.
5. flutter clean; flutter pub get

This resolved the issues for me - would love to know why.

The issue went away once i did a clean repo checkout, still not sure why, thank you for the help !

Hi @EllisMatusica, I'm glad that the issue was resolved. To get more information, can you confirm in your pubspec.lock file which flutter version you have there?

Hi @EllisMatusica and @delwinbest, I'm going to close this issue now. Let us know if any other issues come up.

Hi Folks - issue reappeared today and I'm no longer able to debug via VSCode. 'flutter run' works. I've completely reinstalled flutter, the git repo, Xcode code and cleared ~/.flutter and ~/.dart caches. Can't seem to get this working.

Why would it only happen during debug?

@delwinbest @zhoulijun12315 @eliast96 - if you are still experiencing this can you open a new issue so we can capture reproduction steps and other information about your environment? Thank you.
