AltServer could not find the device.

I’m trying to install the AltStore IPA onto my iPad using a Raspberry Pi 5. I’ve tried using usbmuxd and netmuxd and I get the following outputs.

Output from usbmuxd:

Failed to install DeveloperDiskImage.dmg to Name: unknown UDID: xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. AltServer could not find the device.

Output from netmuxd:

Failed to install DeveloperDiskImage.dmg to Name: unknown UDID: xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. There was an error connecting to the device.

Not sure what other info is needed to resolve this. Thanks in advance.

I also have the same issue. Since I installed AltStore Classic App with the AltStore Pal App the AltServer Linux doesn’t work for me anymore. I always get the message AltServer could not be found or Altserver could not write data to this device. With my Mac everything is working fine so I think it is AltServer Linux which causes the problem. Do you have any idea?

have you found a solution or workaround? I´m gettiong the same error trying it over wifi. On the AltServer Linux i can see altstore app is connecting and downloading the ipa-file to the device. wenn it comes to unzipping .ipa, then it crashes with error:

Unzipping .ipa...
