Objective C not finding file in resources folder

I'm trying to access a file in my resources folder as follows: 

NSLog(@"%@",defaultPlistName);
NSString *pListPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:defaultPlistName ofType:@"plist"];
NSLog(@"pListPath: %@ ",pListPath);

This is the output:

2015-03-13 10:08:43.078 MyApp[628:214709] DefaultConfig
2015-03-13 10:09:26.560 MyApp[628:214709] pListPath: (null)

A file named "DefaultConfig.plist" exists in the resource folder.

Why isn't this file being found?

Check the Copy Bundle Resources for your target to make sure the file has been added properly.

Usually, when when adding a new file, you can choose the targets when creating the file. Also, for each file you can add/remove the file from targets via the Utilities Pane.

It turns out that I had to add "DefaultConfig.plist" to "Build Phases", "Copy Bundle Resources".
