calabash-ios not working with iOS 7.1 Simulators

I'm trying to do some automated UI testing using Calabash, everything works great when I'm running on iOS 8 simulators, however, the minute I switch to an iOS 7 simulator, it doesn't seem to be able to fully start up the app.

The app will open, finish the splash screen, then shortly after it will crash and calabash will retry again. This continues indefinitely until I manually quit it.

The only thing changing between running is my device target, currently I'm using the following for device target:

DEVICE_TARGET="iPhone 5 (7.1 Simulator)"

And when I run on an 8.4 device, it looks like the following:

DEVICE_TARGET="iPhone 5 (8.4 Simulator)"

Any ideas why this isn't working? Is 7.1 not supported on calabash-ios?

More info:

I'd appreciate any help you can provide!

UPDATE This SO answer has some suggestions about how to fix this problem.

Officially, Calabash iOS supports iOS >= 7.1 simulators on Yosemite and iOS >= 7.0.3 on Mavericks.

Do you have the same problem on physical devices?

If you have:

  1. changed the location on the file system or renamed Xcode.app directory,
  2. installed a new Xcode version, or
  3. installed a new iOS Simulator

you must restart your Mac to get the CoreSimulator environment into a good shape.

With that said, I am working on integration tests for run-loop and I am seeing unexplained errors launching iOS 7.1 Simulators in Xcode 6.4 on Yosemite. It looks like UIAutomation is not available on iOS 7.1 Simulators on Yosemite.

I have tried a couple of patches on run-loop, but nothing is working.

There is also this from the Console.app
