Oculus_platform__apk_package_name_already_in_use (950067)

Hi,

I am trying to deploy a Meta Quest App to the Meta Store.

The first submission was rejected, so I am trying to submit a new one, but when I try, I get the following error:
OCULUS_PLATFORM__APK_PACKAGE_NAME_ALREADY_IN_USE

The funny part is when I try some other name, I get a new error saying that I am trying to use a new package name, and I must use the previous name. Meaning the previous name that is giving the error of package name already in use

The only kind of weird thing is that my package name is using underscore (for reasons). But in the guidelines they say it is a valid character and, anyway, if the name is invalid, it should be rejected in the first place. So I don’t think is because of that

So maybe someone has had the same issue.

I will report the issue too to the meta store support

This is an issue on Meta’s end. Hopefully they fix it quickly.
