'reached the maximum number of available Distribution certificates
I was trying to do fastlane match development and that blocked me with the following error message:
Could not create another Distribution certificate, reached the maximum number of available Distribution certificates.
I have only one, so I'm not so sure what's going on here.
Solution 1:[1]
The resolution for me turned out to be that I did not have any Devices in the developer portal anymore.
(Apple walked me through resetting the list for some reason.)
Once I added my iPhone UDID I could do nuke and match development cleanly.
Solution 2:[2]
login in https://developer.apple.com/ and remove one of your Distribution certificates
Solution 3:[3]
Also worth noting that you get this error when you use the same name for the certificates. fastlane match was using certificate name of under "Team iOS", once I revoked this certificate from developer portal, I was able to run match again without any error.
Solution 4:[4]
Check if you are able to create any certificates on Apple Developer account in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. If not - follow instructions / perform actions there.
So one of the options is to remove development certificate and re-generate a new one.
