I am new to Xcode so I am probably doing something wrong (or missing something in this case). I would appreciate any help.
I've just created a new project on Xcode. New Project -> macOS -> Command Prompt. I've saved it somewhere and as soon as Xcode returns with its main screen on my project's properties, I've closed it. Then cd'd to the folder where my .xcodeproject was (on terminal) and ran xcodebuild install
and it returns me that message. Additionally, I tried editing my project Schema from debug
to release
and closed Xcode again (to make sure everything was saved), same error.
If I build the project from Xcode's UI it works, obviously, it will print Hello World, but I can't run the builder from command line. Does anyone have any tips? Thank you!
This is on Xcode 8.3.3.

I ran into this issue and my error was due to an overlooked flag in my .gitlab-ci.yml
file.
Pretty easy fix :)
So the error says:
xcodebuild: error: '<some file>' is not a project file
.
The reason for that was because in my .gitlab-ci.yml
file it said -project
instead of -workspace
Super easy to overlook. So if you have the: is not a project file
error, make sure your flag says -workspace
and not -project
.
Alternatively if you have the opposite error xcodebuild: error: '<some file>' is not a workspace file
then you'll want to change your -workspace
flag to -project

My bad... the xcodebuild install
command works from one directory up, outside the .xcodeproj folder.
