Since updating to Xcode 6, I see this warning every time I run the app on the simulator. My app has a routing app coverage file and I want it copied to the simulator but it's not happening. This seems like it might be a bug. Is there a workaround?
I had a similar error some time back, because XCode may be using a precompiled version of the app.
This is how I solved it:
In xCode, make sure that your app isn't running in the simulator (click the stop button), then
Build menu > Clean target or SHIFT-CMD-K.
Additionally, clean the content in the Derived Data folder ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/.
Hope it works for you.
I want to create an app icon, splash screen, edit the app name, and set some cordova / app settings.
meteor run ios opens up the simulator but doesn't open or the project. Where is that project and does this Xcode project ever get overwritten? I don't want to lose any settings I make.
For example I want to set the app url scheme so I can implement a redirect to the app. I also want to set cordova preferences to disallow over scroll. Typically I would do these things from within the .xcodeproj but where is it and when does it get overwritten / reset?
From what i have seen from the docs and my experience so far
meteor run ios only runs the iOS emulator with your code in it. The code related to this build is in .meteor/local/cordova-build but is temporary and will get overwritten all the time
meteor run ios-device -p yourlocalip:yourlocalport will launch XCode with the cordova-built .xcodeproject, and a local server on your computer. It is intended to make you able to run and debug your code from an actual iPhone device, with the changes you make on your computer to the code repercuted instantly on the iPhone screen. You need your computer and your phone to be on the same Wifi to enable this feature. The code related to this build is in .meteor/local/cordova-build but is temporary and will get overwritten all the time
meteor build /Path/To/Builds/Directory/NewBuild -p yourserverhost:yourserverip will actually create the cordova-built .xcodeproject pointing to your real server at the path you specified. From this project you can customize as much as you want BUT you will indeed loose these settings with a new build...
Except if you use the yourproject/cordova-build-override/ folder !
As described in the offical cordova meteor docs under "Advanced build configuration" everything you put in this folder will overwrite the files created by meteor during its build. So you can configure everything in the Cordova/Phonegap way there. If you were able to configure your features through Cordova usually, you will be able to do it there.
Bonus that I have learned the hard way :
Always destroy the .meteor/local folder before building one of those three things, i got stuck in a state where XCode remembered some of my changes to the .xcodeproject and everything was messed up. After destroying this folder, everything went back to normal :)
hope i helped

If you are looking for the path to the Xcode project in your filesystem, it is located at:
/path/to/project/.meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/ios/<project>.xcodeproj
You'll have to navigate to your project directory and open .meteor because it is a hidden file.
Note: If you want to be able to see hidden files in finder on a mac, then type into your terminal defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE, and then restart finder. Change TRUE to FALSE to only see visible files.
I am using PhoneGap 2.2.0 and XCode 4.5.2.
I can test my programs in the simulators, and I can put them on my devices to test them.
But I simply cannot build for distribution. It always fails with the following error:
my-projevt-path/Classes/AppDelegate.h:30:9: 'Cordova/CDVViewController.h' file not found
I've seen this problem around the web and still can't make it work, given whatever solutions have been posted.
I've changed things in Build Settings, I've reinstalled PhoneGap, I've run new lines in terminal, I've done my app over starting a new PhoneGap project from scratch, I've checked preferences in the build location in Xcode... I can't figure this out AT ALL.
Please, can anyone help? I've been working on this for days.
Thanks!
Problems in Xcode
If you have compilation problems related to missing headers, the build products should build into the same build directory. You may need to set the preference "Xcode Preferences -> Locations -> Derived Data -> Advanced…" to "Unique". This is the default setting for Xcode on a fresh new install, if you upgraded from older versions of Xcode, you might have a legacy preference in there that you need to update.
Found the answer!!!
Yes I am getting the same problem yeah and some help could be great.....
I followed all the instructions even with the ./update_cordova_subproject path as well it does not work. Also I solved the locking problem but I could not find the solution to this problem
The answer, in my case, had seemingly nothing to do with the error message that was being sent. Missing header files? That didn't seem to be the issue. Or, at least, not the direct cause of the issue.
This was an issue with my provisioning/certificates being somehow not right. I had re-created them several times, but it continued to be an issue.
I sent the job to another developer, who opened it on his machine, revoked my certificates and created new ones, and built it without changing anything else. He forwarded me the certificate, the provisioning, and an archive of the job. I opened the archive in xCode and validated it and uploaded it. And it was fine.
If you have got this problem, be certain your certificate/provisioning is set up right. I thought mine was, but apparently it wasn't? The "Apple Process" is definitely weird, and when certificates / profiles gets messed up, problems arise.
I was having the same problem and just solved it! First of the problem may very well be because of your distribution provisioning files... but when you look at the Project Navigator in xCode at the top level you have your Project and inside you have the CordovaLib.xcodeproj click on this file and you will see the iOS Deployment target. Make sure the proper IOS version is selected there. This is 1/2.
2) Then you need to duplicate the Release configuration and rename it Distribution. While the CordovaLib.xcodeproj is selected make a build and then build the actual project. This worked smoothly for me.
Add this line to your Build Settings -> Header Search Paths:
$(OBJROOT)/UninstalledProducts/$(PLATFORM_NAME)/include
Don't replace the existing line that looks similar, that is still needed to be backwards compatible with Xcode 7 and Xcode 6.4.
I receive the following error when trying to run the app on my device.
error: failed to launch '/Users/michael/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/Word Processor.app/Word Processor' -- No such file or directory (/Users/michael/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/Word Processor.app/Word Processor)
The app runs fine in the simulator. When I try to debug on the device, it appears to copy the app (I can see the icon), but then stalls with the above message. Xcode says it is running the app on my iPod, but nothing is happening on my iPod.
When I click on the app, the app appears to launch, but seems to be missing resources.
Other projects of mine work properly. What setting do I need to change to make this work properly.? Looking at the error message, it seems to be looking in my mac for the app. But this doesn't make sense since I am trying to run it on my 4th gen iPod touch. I am using Xcode 4.3.1 and iOS 5.1
With Mountain Lion and the latest version of Xcode (4.4.4F250), none of the suggestions in this thread worked directly (clean, clean project, remove derived data folder, etc). This sequence did. From DhilipSiva:
Disconnect your device
Delete the app from your device
Quit Xcode (Don't just simply close the window, quit it)
Delete derived data folder rm -fr ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData (console)
Start Xcode,connect device & run the project
I solve this by going to Targets-> Info -> Required Device capabilities and delete the option with armv7.
Hope this helps!
This is a recurring problem that many developers are having with the current version of Xcode. The temporary workaround has been consistently deleting the DerivedData folder.
You can add doing it to a build script or even make it a cron job:
rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
Sad, but true.
For me restarting of Xcode, cleaning DerivedData and restaring device wasn't enough in most cases, until I had figured out that iTunes was also running, and after quitting iTunes everything worked fine!
So my steps now are simple:
1. Quit Xcode.
2. If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
3. Reopen project.
No need to remove app from the device, clean project or restart/disconnect device.
I think that's because Xcode and iTunes use some common libraries (as you know, Xcode Installer always asks to quit iTunes on installing iOS SDK).
I also had this problem after changing from a lower XCode and iOS version to the current XCode and iOS version.
I fixed this problem by changing th iOS Depolyment Target to a lower version, since my Device is not updated to the latest iOS yet.
You can do this by clicking the project inside the Info tab.
Have you looked at the Developer Certs and Distribution Certs if you have. When running in debug mode from Xcode your will need your app assigned with the developer cert and not the distribution cert. The distribution certs do not allow for debugging.
This error will manifest whenever the device capabilities described in the Info.plist do not match those of the device.
In my case, I was requesting GPS support and location-services support and trying to test on an iPod touch.
I struggled with this problem for 2 days and went through all the posts, tried all the options including, restarting Xcode, device, deleting DerivedData folder etc.
Finally, the problem was with the Info.plist file. In my case, I had improper icon paths in the Info.plist file. I suggest you to archive the application and then validate it to get the exact problem in you case. Only when I did that, I was able to find the issue.
I solved this problem many times with DhilipSiva's solution. However, it may not work sometimes. If that is the case, consider deleting and re-adding the target.
Removed armv6 support and it started working again
I stumbled upon this same problem on several diferent projects, researched a lot on forums and even here on Stack overflow. A lot of solutions were given, and some people seemed to get them working, but none of them worked for me.
So we tried some pretty obvious course of action, which for some reason we didn't tought about before: I've done a CHMOD -R 777 on the EXACT path indicated by the error message (I copied it directly).
Worked like a charm, 100% times!
Hope it helps, guys!
As Chronos mentiod, the device capabilities might be the reason. In addition I would say that in my case it was all about the UIRequiresPersistentWiFi key, which (for some unclear reason) didn't let me to install my app on an iPhone4. Hope this helps ones who tried everything else and haven't fixed the problem yet.
I solve this by going to Targets-> Info -> Required Device capabilities and check id at 0 index if armv7 not in 0 index then remove other things and armv7 set on 0 index and clean app connect device and run.
Hope this helps fine!
I did these steps:
Delete derived data: rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
Deep cleaned the project: Shift Key + Option Key + Command Key + letter K key
Quit the project
Quit XCode
Deleted the app from my device
When I reopened the Xcode, launched the project, and then launched the app it successively ran on my device
For me it was Command Line Tools
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools
Make sure you select latest Xcode version. I selected Xcode 11.0, and everything started working.
I get the similar question and has searched via the internet the whole day without solution yet...
Xcode 12, iOS 14.
I'm using a cocoaPods call GCDWebServer, which will open a build-in http service in iOS. Now it works fine in simulator and I could open a home page of it in my Mac's browser. But I cannot open the home page if running it with real iPhone. The browser said "Cannot connect to server"
And in console, everything is same without any errors provided for me.
Thus, how could I debug this?
[DEBUG] Did open IPv4 listening socket 3
[DEBUG] Did open IPv6 listening socket 4
[INFO] GCDWebUploader started on port 80 and reachable at http://192.168.1.3/
I am having a consistent problem with multiple different apps that the build on the device does not update when I make code changes. Here's my set up:
OSX Lion
Xcode 4.1
iOS 4.3.5
I build, and then run, the app launches on the device but it still runs the last installed version. In order to get the build to update, I have to do the following...
Remove the app from the device (press and hold on the icon, and click the x)
Clean and then build in Xcode
At this point if I try and run the app does not run. Xcode log says the app has started and stopped. If I restart Xcode and run, then the app runs successfully and is the updated version
If I make a single line of code change I have to go through all the steps above to get the app to update. The project is very large so a clean build takes 2-3 minutes.
Any ideas?
Update
I found the solution, this is related to the use of static libraries. The following article helped me solve this:
Changing the source of a static library needs clean and build in xcode 4
and for general background this was very helpful too:

Double check your provisioning files and targets. Be extra sure to check the App ID in your targets, and Bundle ID in info.plist. Did you change any of that info before you saw this problem? I've noticed strange behavior like what you mentioned when updating those specific pieces of data.
Command+Shift+K -- Clean. I have found that you have to do a manual clean every time now to ensure that the build updates correctly.
In the event that xCode does not run at all, you just have to restart xCode.
