ld: framework not found Parse Xcode 7 beta

I succeed to install and use Parse framework with my new project, but I can't with a "template project".

The template is just a Slide Menu from Appcoda

You can download the project here. I have this error :

ld: framework not found Parse
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

And the same for Bolts.

I don't understand what the problem is, the initial project is just some View Controllers...

When I write the code "import Parse", the error message is :

No such module 'Parse'

I tried to drag and drop the frameworks, and also to add the frameworks in "Link Binary With Libraries".

PS : I am using Xcode 7 beta, and I tried on beta 1 and 2, same issue.

This can also happen if you accidentally break your framework, e.g. if the framework contained an Alias, which is no longer there.

This can happen if you zip the file, as the Alias contains a direct link to the orignal file, and isnt updated when you move the zip. E.g. in my case I recieved a zip of the opencv framework, and inside it had just the 'Versions' folder and no aliases to Headers, Resources or the binary. You can just recreate the aliases, or compile the framework from source again.

This took a while to figure out!

Even I got the same issue. In my case, somehow there were multiple frameworks added to the project, and one of the framework is empty. After removing the empty framwork it started compiling.

Go to your Build Phases -> Linked Binary With Libraries remove your pod framework & add it back again. That does the trick.

Here is the solution:

There seems to be an issue with Xcode 7 beta where the search path for manually added frameworks is missing.

To fix the issue add the search path by doing the following:

  1. Select Project
  2. Click on Targets
  3. Click Build Settings
  4. Search for: Framework Search Path
  5. Add $(PROJECT_DIR) and choose Recursive option.

The project should build now.

None of the proposed solutions worked for me. Eventually I found that the solution was to drag the frameworks from a source folder that did not have spaces in it's name.

E.g.

  • Dragging the frameworks from 'iOS SDKS' > did not work
  • Dragging the frameworks from 'Downloads' > worked

It's not the first time that XCode has been shown to be problematic when working with paths that contain spaces.

Ensure that Parse is included in the "Link Binary With Libraries" section under "Build Phases".
