In-App Purchase Question

Folks;

Running on a Developer Transition Kit - (A12Z) macOS 11.2  - Xcode 12.3

I have built a free to download Mac App which has a variety of in-app purchases; some are auto-renewing subscriptions, some are non-consumable.
(all of these in-app purchases have been approved by Apple)

I am experiencing difficulty testing in the sandbox.

I have logged out of my user account in the Mac App Store.
I have removed the existing Container folder from user’s Library folder.
I have created a brand new testing account in App Store Connect.
I have done a clean and build in Xcode.

When I then run the app I am prompted to ‘Sign in to use this application on this computer’.
(“AppName” was purchased using the App Store on another computer….)

I enter the new AppleID I just set up in App Store Connect and then I am prompted for a password.

After I supply the password the app crashes:

Code Block
Application Specific Information:
dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries
Dyld Error Message:
  dyld: Using shared cache: 775BB65E-F213-3A39-ACF0-7343BCDE1E6C
Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/……..
  Referenced from: /Users/USER/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/AppName-hcuqdwzeykfjvqfdldsnjiocbxtj/Build/Products/Debug/AppName.app/Contents/MacOS/AppName
  Reason: image not found


If I immediately re-run the application at this point I get a successful launch....

As part of my app’s normal launch I process the receipt.

During this successful re-launch the receipt is found and is correctly processed. It correctly determines that no in-app purchases have yet been made.

In the app code I successfully perform an SKProductRequest (I receive the correct information back).

Based on this SKProductRequest success I then attempt to make an in-app purchase which uses the product information from the SKProductRequest

I am prompted to ‘Sign in to the App Store’
(If you have an Apple ID, sign in with it here.  [Environment: Sandbox])  Buttons: Cancel  & Buy - there is a textfield to enter an Apple ID

(the pre-filled in Apple ID is NOT the Apple ID I submitted during the initial launch….

When I click the ‘Buy’ I am prompted for the password.  

When I supply the password I then prompted with a different dialog window ‘Sign In to the App Store’
(If you have an Apple ID, sign in with it here.  [Environment: Sandbox])  Buttons: Cancel  & Buy - no textfield to enter an Apple ID

If I click the ‘Buy’ button, the dialog window disappears for a second or two and then re-appears

After the 4th such 'Buy' click I see an error logged by SKPaymentQueue:
Code Block
<SKPaymentQueue: 0x600001a13b80>: Payment completed with error: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=500 "Unhandled exception" 
UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x600001612700 {Error Domain=AMSErrorDomain Code=306 "Reached max retry count" 
UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Reached max retry count, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Task reached max retry count (3 / 3);}}, 
NSLocalizedFailureReason=An unknown error occurred, NSLocalizedDescription=Unhandled exception}

Can anyone provide some clarity as to what I am doing wrong? Any thoughts appreciated!!

Did you ever figure this out? I am getting a lot of Code=306 "Reached max retry count" errors in Production when users attempt to make a purchase. Apple can't fix/debug it unless I can provide a way to reproduce it.
