Could not launch iOS app

I don't know what has happened to my Xcode, but since I deleted my app from the device, and tried to rerun it on my iPhone, I get this message coming from the top of the screen:

No such file or directory (/Users/spazm/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/newProject-cfjhjgezzcapwoadaivpptyywptu/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/proj.app/proj)

In addition, where you can select the "active scheme" (iPhone / iPhone Simulator / iPad Simulator), I used to have "iOS device", and right after plugging my device in, I would get my phone's name and everything would go sweet.
Now, I only see "iOS device" (after plugging in), and I need to select my phone manually, which seems like something went wrong here. I am not sure what.

Try checking the Deployment Target for the app. I was getting this same error when trying to deploy an app that required iOS 6.0 to a device that had 5.1 installed.

  • In the xcode organizer delete "derived data"

Alternatively you can open "~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData" folder and delete derived data folders associated with your application. You also should make a clean/build.

  • For the second problem, again in the organizer window under devices find your device and click "use for development"

Edit: Today I have experienced again, deleting derived data did not solved the error this time. After deleting data, making a clean build, deleting the app from my device, I needed to close & reopen xcode, which finally fixed the error.

The problem was in the project file itself. Used my backup to load the old project, then manually added all the files from the bad-new-project.
Must have been some setting.
