xcode-select active developer directory error

问题:

Saw the following error when running an npm install which required node-gyp... but could be triggered by anything which requires xcode-select.

xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance

What is the problem?

回答1:

This problem happens when xcode-select developer directory was pointing to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools, when a full regular XCode was required (happens when CLT are installed after XCode)

Solution:

1. Install Xcode (get it from https://developer.apple.com/xcode/) if you don't have it yet.
2. Accept the Terms and Conditions.
3. Ensure Xcode app is in the /Applications directory (NOT /Users/{user}/Applications).
4. Point xcode-select to the Xcode app Developer directory using the following command:
   sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Note: Make sure your Xcode app path is correct.

• Xcode: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
• Xcode-beta: /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer

Other solution for those who don't want to install Xcode:

1. Install Command Line Tools (if you haven't already):

   xcode-select --install

2. Change the active directory:

   sudo xcode-select -switch /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

This worked for me (git).

I was having an issue while trying to install packages using npm. I got the error: "sudo xcode-select -s /Applications//Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/"

To fix this

• I opened Xcode.
• Preferences
• Locations
• Selected the Command Lin Tools: Xcode 6.1.1

Now when installing packages with npm I no longer get errors.

回答4:

Xcode->Preferences->Locations->command line tools

Select the option: Xcode 8.x

回答5:

Just in case you're using xcode beta:

sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-Beta.app/Contents/Developer

回答6:

Install Xcode from App Store. After installing run xcodebuild with root privileges i.e. sudo xcodebuild and accept the language. After this npm install bcrypt worked like a charm!

回答7:

Simply run sudo xcode-select -r which should automatically reset the path.

 -r, --reset               Unsets any user-specified developer directory, so that the developer directory will be found via the default search mechanism. This command must  be               run with superuser permissions (see sudo(8)), and will affect all users on the system.

回答8:

Without Xcode: create file /usr/local/bin/xcodebuild with content to cheat XcodeSelect

  #!/bin/bash   exit 0

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/xcodebuild

回答9:

XCode2: sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode\ 2.app/Contents/Developer

Pay attention to the "\" to escape the space

回答10:

I had two instance of Xcode installed xcode.app and xcode-beta.app When I tried to create a build with netbeans it showed me the error "supported version of xcode and command line tools not found netbeans"

I followed the following steps:

1. "xcode-select --print-path" is equal to "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer"
2. "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform" exists
3. "xcodebuild -version" starts with "Xcode"

after 1 I found that it is pointing me to xcode-beta.app

so here is the solution which worked like a charm:

sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

回答11:

1. Download Xcode from App Store.

2. Go to Xcode preferences/Locations/CommandlineTools

   You just have to set it to the Xcode version. It automatically points to '/Application/Xcode.app'
