error: Unable to resolve build file: XCBCore.BuildFile (missingTargetProductReference("3bf83096e50de72a94699e9afc1133ebe3512682230d04680075c283a974e273")) (in target 'MyTarget')
Xcode 10 is giving this error immediately when trying to build our project. It's not immediately clear what is causing it.
How can I resolve it?
For XCode 10 Beta: Problem occurs when I have two workspaces open that share the same project directories. Solution was
Short version
Shut down all but one workspaces
exit XCode and reopen XCode
XCode > Product > Clean Build Folder
Longer version
Shut down all but one workspace
XCode > Preferences > Locations > Derived Data > goto directory ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
Clear out subdirectories from DerivedData
exit XCode and reopen XCode
XCode > Product > Clean Build Folder
Thanks to #aferriss answer for the clue.
I came across this same error while using openframeworks 0.10 with xcode 10 recently. It seems like it was caused by having multiple openframeworks projects opened at a time. If you close them all one by one, and then reopen the one you'd like to work on, it should resolve the error. Hoping this is just an xcode-beta thing.
Xcode used to tell you that there as a workspace integrity problem, and you could just ignore it. But it seems like it's returned. There's some discussion about this issue here.
For me, XCode > Product > Clean Build Folder and restart Xcode then worked.
This was the culprit for my experience of the same error:
After setting the correct version of Command Line Tools (i.e., Xcode 10.2.1; see below) on my system, the error went away!
Just Restarted my Xcode and the problem went away
The key here is missingTargetProductReference, or you might get namedReferencesCannotBeResolved. Xcode can't find something.
This happened after upgrading to Swift5/Xcode10.
I found that removing linked frameworks and then re-adding them fixed the issue.
I had an embedded Xcode project that was not found (light blue). Deleting it and dropping it in again solved the issue.
In case this helps, I had a new repo and the Libraries weren't correctly linked.
I opened Xcode, cleaned, and went through, one by one, through Libraries on the menu. I clicked on it, which opened the info panel on the right, and pressed the small folder button, and found the path designated and clicked and opened, to make Xcode recognize those Libraries. Path names were often
/node_modules/react-native/Libraries/(something)/(something).xcodeproj
In my case, after trying all solutions in this question and some more (including updating Xcode 10.2 beta and even macOS), the only thing that worked was accessing the project bundle (right click > Show Package Contents) and remove everything except project.pbxproj:
project.xcworkspace
xcshareddata
xcuserdata
If you have a File Group which is backed by a physical folder and that physical folder has been deleted then you will get the same error "Unable to resolve build file: XCBCore.BuildFile".
In my case the physical folder has been removed (because I removed all "real" files from it) and in XCode group there was still one external project linked.
Solution:
- created a new group (without a folder) in XCode
- Moved external project reference there.
- rebuilt the project
Error gone.
For me there was a different solution after none of the above worked.
The problem started after using unlink for one of my packages.
Then for some reason, the Package was still there under Libraries, but it was greyed. After deleting the greyed Library, everything started working again.
My solution was that I was using the wrong Xcode version for the project I was working with. It still required 10.1 and I was attempting to run in 10.2. I instead opened it in 10.1 and the error went away while successfully compiling.
The problem is that on new xcode 10.2 there is a new BUILD Configuration, you need to change to LEGACY.
You can check how to change it here: https://medium.com/xcblog/five-things-you-must-know-about-xcode-10-new-build-system-41676cd5fd6c . CHECK THE GIF
So if you have a newer version of xcode different than the one used when the project was working probably this is what is causing the issue.
I have the same problem. Because a folder not upload to Git server, git not allow upload empty folder, then I create a folder in project folder, and it work well.
missing folder
In my case, it was a simple issue of a missing file.
Checked all secondary error messages. Error report said that my bridging-header.h file was not being found. Checked the path of the missing file from the target settings (just search for .h to get the right setting key). Fixed the new path and error went away.
The cause:
I had reorganized my folders after a system crash and added a second level to my project location.
I've faced the problem in Xcode 10.1.2. Xcode restarting and the clean project solve it in my case.
Seems like there are a number of reasons for which one runs into the same error. For my case, it was not having the Submodule checked out locally. After I made sure all my Submodules were downloaded, the error went away.
I had correct Command Line Tools and cleaning did nothing for me.
While resolving a merge conflict, A Group named "Recovered References" had appeared in my project navigator. Probably due to a mistake I made during merging. The Group was empty and deleting it fixed my problem.
When I run my swift 3.2 code with Xcode 9 beta 4 this is the error I get:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'com.firebase.core', reason: '[FIRApp configure]; (FirebaseApp.configure() in Swift) could not find a valid GoogleService-Info.plist in your project. Please download one from https://console.firebase.google.com/.'
I already have a GoogleService-Info.plist file that is named exactly like it should and it is valid.
Is there any trial to firebase or something like that?
Remove the Google-Info.plist file from your project and try to add it from your project folder's option menu.
EDIT:
this is how you remove a plist file
Xcode 10 Error: Multiple commands produce
I had the same issue.
Click on the Googleservice-info.plist in your project and check Target Membership for app in the inspector. That fixed it for me.
That is the reason for this crash and removing the file and adding again is another way of doing as suggested by answers above. But the actual cause is this and this is the right way to solve it.
Please refer to the image below for further clarification:
Once you add the file to the project, you may also need to add it to Build Phases in the Compile Sources section.
Add the GoogleService-Info.plist in Build Phases as screenshot above:
Make sure the name of the file is correct, i.e: "GoogleService-info.plist"
Add it to the project in mac finder under the project name and then drag it into the project to reference it.
Finally, as Silvajee mentioned, go to the file inspector for the plist file and tick the box under target membership to include it as part of the project.
If you have multiple environments (Production, Develop, Staging), you will need a different Google.plist for each.
They all have to have the same name.
To get around this, create folders for each of these files (one for each environment) and place them inside their corresponding folders.
When you drag the files from the Finder to Xcode, make sure to select the proper environment for each under Target Membership
That will do the trick and allow you to build environments separately. Especially if each environment has a different Bundle ID.
Make sure your file name is correct as "GoogleService-Info.plist". Any other name would cause problem. Restart XCode and you are good to go.
Unfortunately or fortunately, the error specified is very accurate. There is only one option available right now. i.,e placing Google-Info.plist file in your project properly. Try to remove and add that again. Also, check if a target is selected or not.
Restarting Xcode worked for me, none of the above option worked.
These steps solved my problem. FOllow these.
1.You must drag and drop the GoogleService-Info.plist file into your project in a location such as Shared Resources. When you have successfully added the file, you should also make sure to include it in the project build:
2.Double-check that in the "Build Phases" section of your project that your project is including GoogleService-Info.plist.
3.Double check the file name. The file name must be exactly GoogleService-Info.plist common misspellings include GoogleServices-Info.plist and GoogleService-info.plist - case sensitive and exactly named only will work.
Actually this error is occur when GoogleService-Info.plist file is not actually located in our project folder but it just have a reference to that file where it is downloaded. So solution is that remove reference to this file and again add it to your project folder by drag and drop or by using "Add Files ..." option by right click to your project folder. Also recheck whether file is locating your project folder destination otherwise error will be occur again.
Don't forget to check your "GoogleService-Info.plist" file have same name as shown in error otherwise rename it.
For those of you working with Ionic, make sure to open your .xcworkspace file in Xcode first, then drag the GoogleService-info.plist file into the Resources folder.
Most tutorials online don't do a good job of explaining that portion for some reason.
Shout out to Shahzaib Maqbool because his comment helped me get this for my project.
Below setting can fix my compiler fail
1. Add to "Copy Files"
2. Not add to "Copy Bundle Resources"
We must make sure that full path is correct in Xcode. It would be better to add it from the start. If you already did, jump to step 5.
Quit Xcode.
Make sure that file name is correct, "GoogleService-Info.plist".
Add .plist file to project folder. Same level with Podfile, .xcworkspace, etc.
Open Xcode, identify .plist file on Project Navigator. If it's not there, right-click and click Add new file to "[Project Name]". Make sure to click project name below Add to targets option.
On Project Navigator, click on GoogleService-Info.plist. Select File Inspector from right navigator. Ensure that Full Path is correct. If not, click on folder icon and select the .plist file inside the project file.
Build. If still doesn't work, Quit Xcode and Build again.
Doing a clean then build a couple times worked for me.
1 - open "GoogleService-Info.plist" and change any or to and
2 - reopen the xamarin solution
3 - it should work now
I solved the issue by deleting the project from Firebase and deleted the GoogleService-Info.plist from project. After I again added the project to Firebase and added the new GoogleService-Info.plist file worked for me.
This error occur download google service more than 1 time. When we download first time from firebase, it's like GoolgeService-Info.Plist. If you download again, that will come GoogleService-Info(1).Plist. We need to remove (1) from GoogleService-Info(1).Plist.
Please try this.
Click on GoogleService-Info.
checked the target membership on the right side .
Clean and build . It will work.
2022 Update
If you're migrating from older firebase version and want to initialize Firebase from Dart only, then you have to remove Firebase Initialization from AppDelegate.m or Appdelegate.swift
in swift, remove FirebaseApp.configure()
and start again.
I know this question has a million answers already, but perhaps this solution will help someone who isn't using Xcode build configs like many answers above.
If you're converting an iOS app to Catalyst (as I am), then I found a minor but obtuse difference is Catalyst apps make bundles with a "Content/Resources" folder structure that was throwing off my builds for a while. My build phases copy my release/debug Plist files for me and the pathing difference from iOS -> Catalyst was causing this error.
You can probably solve this problem many ways, like the multiple folders with same named Plist files above. I use a custom bash script via build phases, and copy the file manually like this:
if [ $CONFIGURATION == "Debug" ]; then
echo using DEBUG firebase!
# Mac Catalyst appends a "Contents" folder so we need to handle that explicitly here
if [ $IS_MACCATALYST ]; then
#echo "MAC CATALYST BUILD"
cp ${SRCROOT}/${PROJECT-DIR}/your-custom-paths-here/GoogleService-Info.plist ${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist
else
cp ${SRCROOT}/${PROJECT-DIR}/firebase/debug/GoogleService-Info.plist ${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.app
fi
fi
Go to build phases and add file in copy bundle resources. Thats it.
delete any other "GoogleService-Info.plist" files that have been previously installed. in my case, when I installed it, it was names as "GoogleService-Info.plist-2" since I had another file installed in the same folder. it looks that this will create a confusion for firebase. I deleted all old files and changed the name of the current one to "GoogleService-Info.plist" exactly. it worked.
In my case something went wrong when i merged conflicts in project.pbxproj
GoogleService-Info.plist -> didn't have Target membership selected on the right pane and I couldn't select it because project.pbxproj was corrupted (even though build was successful)
I had to rollback project.pbxproj and after that GoogleService-Info.plist had Target membership selected.
Make sure project.pbxproj isn't corrupted after merging conflicts (it had something to do with attempted to initialize an object with an unknown UUID)
For anyone using Xamarin by mistake (you should avoid this piece of tool by all means):
open project file as code, and check that the file has import tag BundleResource, and not None (the red one is the correct one):
I'm using FirebaseUI and was receiving a slightly different error when pressing Sign-In with Google:
***Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'OAuth client ID not found. Please make sure Google Sign-In is enabled in the Firebase console. You may have to download a new GoogleService-Info.plist file after enabling Google Sign-In.'
What fixed that issue for me was changing this line (that seems to be deprecated)
[[FUIGoogleAuth alloc] init]]
to
[[FUIGoogleAuth alloc] initWithAuthUI:[FUIAuth defaultAuthUI]]
when building providers list
NSArray<id<FUIAuthProvider>> *providers = #[
[[FUIGoogleAuth alloc] initWithAuthUI:[FUIAuth defaultAuthUI]],
[[FUIPhoneAuth alloc] initWithAuthUI:[FUIAuth defaultAuthUI]]
];
Another easily overlooked problem is when you have multiple PLIST files downloaded so the file is not exactly named 'GoogleService-Info.plist'.
I had multiple copies so was trying to use 'GoogleService-Info.plist(2)' which throws the same error, so make sure the file itself is named as it is meant to be!
My problem same this case and solved that ->
ı added xcode runner Open Xcode, then right-click on Runner directory and select Add Files to "Runner".
most importantly;
terminal: cd ios- " pod install "
and info.list thats ok.
ı hope your problems solved
I had to same issue and same error what you have. I downloaded from Firebase more than one info.plist file that why my MacBook save these files like
GoogleService-Info.plist,GoogleService-Info-2.plist,GoogleService-Info-3.plist
Then I copied mistakenly in my project GoogleService-Info-3.plist then I took same error. Then I just copied GoogleService-Info.plist and problem has been solved.
But be careful about bundle identifier. You have to copied correct project plist.
Just drag and drop the file into terminal, don't copy paste from Notes or TextEdit or from elsewhere.
I was trying to convert syntax of old Swift project to new one as per few suggestion on Stack Overflow I tried converting it through Edit > Convert > To latest Syntax that did not work properly instead I started getting new errors shown as below
Command/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/swiftc
failed with exit code 1
And
Command /usr/bin/ditto failed with exit code 1
I tried Xcode 6.0.1 Command /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/swiftc failed with exit code 1, but it's a different situation.
Have you tried to do clean with Clean build folder?
The combination keys is:
ALT + SHIFT + COMMAND + K
Try delete Derived Data folder and Build it.
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations for get the derived data path
Clean Xcode. (cmd+shift+k)
Quit Xcode completely.
Open project again.
Wait for Xcode to indexing files.
Now run your project.
Just had the same issue. For me it was because I had renamed some of the project directories. I had a ton of red files in my project navigator. To solve, follow these steps:
click on the directory in project navigator where many files show as red
Under "Identity and Type" in the File Inspector (on the right side), click Containing directory
Select the new directories
Rebuild - command shift K, command B
As far as I know there can be multiple reasons why a compiler fails. Although cmd+alt+shift+k will help most of the time. If this fails, then click on the error message and try to debug it.
For example in the image below, if you read the message, we get to know that, there has been a name duplication. Fixing the name duplication will fix the issue.
Just remove inactive file(deleted file) from Build phases
then
Clean Xcode. (cmd+shift+k)
delete Derived Data folder and Build it.
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations for get the derived data path or cmd+Alt+shift+k
OR
Just remove inactive file(deleted file) from Build phases
Cleaning the project wasn't working for me, this is because I didn't pay attention to the message right above (Xcode highlights only the final command).
In my case it was
<unknown>:0: error: filename "FileDuplicated.swift" used twice: '/../filepath/FileDuplicated.swift' and '/../filepath/FileDuplicated.swift'
<unknown>:0: note: filenames are used to distinguish private declarations with the same name
Command /../bin/swiftc failed with exit code 1
I had to change the name of one of the two files and it was solved.
Hope this can help someone, cheers
In my case it was due to the few swift files which has been showed grayed out in the Build Phases section. After removing those files it was successful.
In my case I deleted few files from project and when try to commit the code, the files was showing there . To solve this issue.
1. Open terminal
2. Type git clean -n // it will show you list of files which are deleted from project but still are saved somewhere
3. Type git clean -f // All unwanted files will be removed
In my case, it was "Other swift flags". I had declared a flag there but not -D, so this was not getting recognized and resulted in the same error
In my case swift development snapshot was selected instead of xcode 9.2. here are the steps and image.
xcode on screen and click on xcode top menu bar.
Than go to toolchains option and check on xcode 9.2. thats it.
Note: If no toolchain found in your xcode than download from Here and install it. (after installation restart xcode).
Happy Coding!!!
Ok, my turn now. In my case I had an existing project. I copied in a few files from another project. One of the files I brought in was SettingsViewController.swift and there was already a file by the same name I was not aware of. The files were in different directories of the project so no duplicate message was shown. The compile/link messages offered no clue to this. I figured out the issue by adding one file at a time to the project (there were 12 total) and the building each time until I found the offending file. I renamed the new file and project builds now.
In my case it was a compiler flag change that didn't work well. It took a few compiles before it actually started failing though! Xcode caches what it compiles.
I just had this issue. It's due to path references. Have you been moving files around and/or copying folders? Check if .xcodeproj is inside or outside of the main project folder. Also, make sure that the project's file and directory structure are intact.
/yourFolderProjectName/ <-- contains your .xcodeproj file AND folder with Xcode project name
/yourProjectFolder <-- here are .swift, info.plist, assets folder, etc.
/yourProjectXcodeFile.xcodeproj
Another thing to check:
In my case I had deleted a row in the "Other Swift Flags" section in the Build Settings screen under the Release setting.
That row had been a value for a compiler flag key/value pair. So the key was there but not the value.
Once I deleted the key as well, then the build worked again.
This issue is happening because of pods
So Follow the below steps to resolve this issue
Remove all the pods and re-install again.
Remove all the pods using below this command (rm -rf "pwd/Pods/")
Quit the Xcode and open it again and build the app with device (generic iOS device).
Now check this issue will be resolved.
I had this error when Xcode found two .swift files with same name. Rename one of them and build again.
Wait for completing the indexing and run the project again. You must get an error then check it which may be Objective-c bridging file not found error. This error comes if you are using any Objective-C library or code directly in the project and your project unable to find the bridging file in the system. This issue basically caused by, if project is unable to find any file in the system which is using in the project (path issue).
I faced this issue while using the Swift auto-generated header file in my project (named as 'TargetName'-swift.h) to use Swift classes in Objective-C.
There was a typo in the file where I had imported this swift header. Correcting the typo helped me resolve the issue.
Clean the build in Xcode cmd+shift+k.
Update the pods.
look the where errors showing.
Add the missing files in Xcode.
After Run the Code. Working fine.
Try below if none of the above working for you.
My project location was desktop/my_project_folder
I tried all above then i made simple change.
I create one more folder on desktop past my project
.
then...
Cause of problem in my case:
This problem occurred when i change my project name in xcode & project folder name from desktop.
I was working on a private pod and was also pointing to it locally. I had made some file name changes.
Hence I was getting this error.
All I had to do was to run pod install so it would reflect the file name changes. After that it compiled.
In my case I copied a core data entity and only renamed the entity but not the class.
So go to your xcdatamodel and select the enitity > rename also the class name
Had the same issue but with duplicate file references.
Deleting Derived Data and cleaning had no success. But I got it fixed by doing this:
Navigate to your project.pbxproj -> open with your text editor of choice(I use atom).
Command+F and find the duplicate file sources and then delete them.
Build/Run and should be fixed.
For me, it was the keychainAccess problem as described in this answer (my error messages were completely opaque, all I had to go by was 'failed with exit code 1')
I've added the SPGooglePlacesAutocomplete cocoapod to my project -- and I'm getting a really weird issue. When I try to run my project, Xcode says there's an error in one of the Pod's headers:
SPGooglePlacesAutocompleteQuery.h:65:23: Unknown type name 'CGFloat'
Attempting to adjust anything in that file - such as importing UIKit - results in an error: "The document SPGooglePlacesAutocompleteQuery.h could not be saved. The file doesn’t exist"
What could be making Xcode thing this file is non-existent?
For what it's worth, in my case the error came up when I was trying to edit a file pointed to by the warning/error pane in Xcode.
Not sure if that's cocoa pod related but I happen to be using pods also.
Basically you get an error, click on it and try to modify the file to fix the error and sometimes, not sure how, Xcode produces this error.
Since Xcode is stuck trying to save the changes to the file, you have to undo any changes you're made to the file in the error browser. Then editing the file by clicking on it in the regular browser instead of the warning/error pane will let you modify the file and save it.
I'm running Xcode 6.1.1 and Cocoapods 0.36.0.rc.1 and this happens when trying to modify a file from a pod added as a development pod (i.e. from a local directory).
I was facing this problem while I was developing objective-c pod and one of the file(say xx.h &.m) in Classes folder was giving this error prompt. I did following approach:
I copied xx(.h&.m) some where else (say Desktop)
Delete xx(.h&.m) completely from classes folder .
Force quit Xcode
Reopen the project
Drag the file xx(.h&.m) . Select 'copy item if needed' and 'target'.
problem solved!
I'm running Xcode 7.3 and CocoaPods 1.0.0. and this happens when trying to modify a file from a pod added as a development pod (i.e. from a local directory).
I just pod update again, when pod finished, Xcode will show an alert "The document has previously unsaved changes.", then click "Re-Save". that fix my issue.
I have face this issue many times. I followed below steps to fixed this.
Select file->Show in Finder
Copy the file and paste it in a different location.
Remove the original file from Xcode by selecting show in finder
Re-add the file that you copied from a destination and drag it into Xcode file pane where it was before.
Clean and run the code.
Delete derived data.
Force quit Xcode.
Open Xcode
Done
delete the generated pod folder, pod install again. solve my problem
For me what worked was restarting the Macbook.
I also had the same problem , it was when i was moving the file from one group to another . Xcode showed the same pop-up . All i did was copied all the content of the file with to a new file and deleted the old file , then quit and open the Xcode which solved the problem finally .
I get this error when building my app in the latest version of Xcode:
fatal error: malformed or corrupted AST file: 'Unable to load module
"/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/XYZYIE6ZV0OP/Darwin.pcm":

the module cache at
'/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/XYZYIE6ZV0OP'
1 error generated.
When I navigate to:
/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache
I can see that the directory 'XYZYIE6ZV0OP' doesn't exist.
Does anybody know how I can resolve this? I cannot delete anything at the directory as suggested in the 2nd part of the error message as that directory doesn't exist!
Had same problem. Clearing derived data folder solved the issue for me. In Xcode, go to Window->Organizer->Projects, select your project, and press the "Delete..." button next to "Derived data".
If this doesn't work, you can try to do a Product->Clean (Cmd+Shift+k).
Press Command + shift + k or clean the project and then run project...
In Xcode select Product-->Clean problem will be solved
By default Library folder is hidden in Mac. Best way to navigate to that folder is :
Open Finder
Select Go from menu -> Select "Go to folder"
Type : /Users/"your user name"/Library/Developer/xcode
This will open direct xcode folder inside hidden library folder.
Select "DerivedData" folder
Command + A, select all and delete them.
Open Simulator and "Reset Content and Settings".
Now run XCode again, all will fix.
I had the same issue, solved it by cleaning the project.
Product-> Clean
or press
command+shift+K
In my case, I accidentally modified NSURLConnection.h. Xcode complained about cache at path
/var/folders/p6/fk2rmf017sn2d_gds6dtqr6hrst8b2/C/com.apple.DeveloperTools/5.0.2-5A3005/Xcode/5.0.2-5A3005/Xcode/ModuleCache/XWWWZ5ED888F
I finally found the steps to fix it:
Quit Xcode
Delete the upper "5.0.2-5A3005" at
/var/folders/p6/fk2rmf017sn2d_gds6dtqr6hrst8b2/C/com.apple.DeveloperTools/5.0.2-5A3005
When Xcode restarted, it regenerated that folder and everything in it.
I had the same issue ever since installing the latest SDK.
My solution was to delete the derived data and clean the project.
I got same error on executing xcodebuild command of Xcode6-beta5.app coexisting with Xcode.app (Xcode 5).
In this case I added -derivedDataPath to separate ModuleCache from the one for default Xcode.app.
xcodebuild -derivedDataPath ./build/Xcode6-beta5/DerivedData ....
This works for me.
I tried deleting derived data and Clean project several times and it doesn't work. The file in my warning is an old file I already deleted from Project Navigator and all the Build Settings. But it keeps showing up and gives me this error. The error only occurs on Simulator, but not on device. Which is really really weird. :/
For some reason, I switched branch to some other branch and switch back and it works again. If anyone even know how that could work please tell me :D
Simply clean remove the Derived Data and build folders. The problem shall be resolved.
In my case the SSD was broken.
You can verify the disk with apples Disk Utility
In my case I had a spaces in my plist file name.
I removed it, and changed Info.plist File key in target Build Settings
Refreash Safari browser, scroll down the page and you will see you "Click + button for add build ..." then add actual build, click Save and "Waiting for Review"
Cleaning the project and deleting the drive data didn't fix it for me. But what finally fixed it was changing the model of simulator that I used.
So first do a clean, then if you were running it on iPhone 5 simulator, run it on iPhone 5s simulator to fix the issue. basically, run it on any other simulator other than the one you were running.
(Credit to Hlung for his answer, I hope this one is a bit more clear)
If you have your project scheme set to "Wait for executable to be launched" this error might happen.
In that case, just changed your scheme from Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme...
In my case, I tried to archive a app in one project within a xcodeworkspace
close Xcode, the open the single target project, and clean an
Then, I do archive, it makes an iOS App archive.
I hope I can help someone.
Got this error while trying to build a third-party app for the first time. Adding foundation as a library fixed the issue for me.
I did Clean cached, Delete derived data, Manually delete the Module cache folders which found from the error logs, Restart xcode, Restart machine.
But non of them helped me.
But this steps help me to resolve the issues
Comment out all the #import line in [Name]-Prefix.pch files.
Build, as expected its pointing me to different errors.
Revert back the changes I have done in [Name]-Prefix.pch and Build, compilation succeeded.
This solution help me to resolve the issue.
if you can't find your "Derived data"
File -> Workspace settings
Click on the arrow icon next to your path
Remove "Derived data" folder
tried to re-install XCode which didnt resolve the issue, also created a new local user account & get the same error so in the end I gave up & restored to a time machine backup from a few days before... seems to be ok again... for now!
