Xcode 6 beta 3: invalid virtual filesystem overlay file

Question

After updating to Xcode 6 beta 3 the compiler keeps crashing with the following error:

/[Long-path-goes-here]/all-product-headers.yaml:4:13: error: Could not         


        

Answer 1

I get this error too frequently, so I've made a simple bash script based on Daniel Schlaug's answer. I've never needed to lock the file. Just copy the file referenced in your error log and use it as the only parameter. Don't forget to chmod +ux before running.

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$#" -eq "0" ]
then
   echo "No arguments supplied"
   exit
fi

rm -rf $1
echo "
{
  'version': 0,
   'case-sensitive': 'false',
   'roots': []
 }" > $1
