I'm attempting to set up a CI environment for an iOS application. So far I've gotten xcodebuild to build the test build correctly from the command line but when Jenkins tries to execute it I get the following read out in the console:
Started by user anonymous Building in workspace /Users/Shared/Jenkins/Home/jobs/Unit Tests/workspace Working directory is /Users/iosappdev/Documents/Xcode Projects/rules. [rules] $ /usr/bin/xcodebuild -version FATAL: Cannot run program "/usr/bin/xcodebuild" (in directory "/Users/iosappdev/Documents/Xcode Projects/rules"): error=13, Permission denied java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/usr/bin/xcodebuild" (in directory "/Users/iosappdev/Documents/Xcode Projects/rules"): error=13, Permission denied at java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:460) at hudson.Proc$LocalProc.<init>(Proc.java:244) at hudson.Proc$LocalProc.<init>(Proc.java:216) at hudson.Launcher$LocalLauncher.launch(Launcher.java:707) at hudson.Launcher$ProcStarter.start(Launcher.java:338) at hudson.Launcher$ProcStarter.join(Launcher.java:345) at au.com.rayh.XCodeBuilder.perform(XCodeBuilder.java:224) Any thoughts? I'm fairly new to Jenkins but I have done my best to answer this question with Google Fu to no avail. I did originally run into this problem with a manual installation of Jenkins (homebrew technically) but recently used the OSX installer and it resulted in the same error.
I'm guessing this has more to do with Unix/Linux/OSX permissions than Jenkins/Xcode but don't have enough expertise to determine that for certain.
Edit
Project directory permissions set to 775.
I've also tried changing the ownership to the user Jenkins runs on.
Here's the output for when I attempted to run xcodebuild as the daemon user ($ sudo -u daemon xcodebuild):
