Info.plist Utility Error: “Info.plist couldn't be opened because there is no such file”

Question

I\'m running into what seems to be common error, in that Xcode can\'t seem to find my \'Info.plist\' file.

I\'ve checked the answers to these two StackOverflow ques

Answer 1

For me, the anwser for this issue was:

1.Turn off Xcode

2.Go to ./Users/You/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData

3.Delete everything from this folder

4.Run Xcode

5.Build&Clean

Xcode version: 6.4 (6E35b)

Answer 2

One of the most weird issue that I have faced. In my case I do not have any file missing, I cleared the derived data, cleared the modular cache, cleaned the project multiple times, restarted my xcode, but nothing worked for me. At the end I restarted my computer with the only hope to resolve this issue which surprisingly worked for me!!!

Answer 3

Relocate the files by double clicking on this icon:

I had this issue too for the past couple hours. I had downloaded my github project from an earlier version. the search paths seem to have gotten confused and needed to be explicitly told where the files were located.

Answer 4

One other thing for consideration is to uncheck Localization for info.plist in utility bar,if you have checked it and then clear the project,the task is done!

Answer 5

XCode 10 and 11

I know it's been a while, but I faced the same issue today, and the answers I've found weren't very clear for me, so I decided to make an instruction with screenshots.

1) First, open the right-hand panel in xcode and click on your .plist file:

2) Second, choose Relative to project location on the right-hand panel and copy the link just below it:

3) Third, go to the main project settings, choose your target and click on the Build settings tab:

4) And finally, type Info.plist in the search field, double-click on the existing path and paste the link you have copied earlier:

In the end, clean the project Shift + Cmd + K and re-run.

Answer 6

Also you can check the target dependencies. It took me 1hr before realising that I have copied a UI test target for target A, but there was a dependency left. So the build required a file that was not mapped to target B, but only to A.

ui test for target B: dependency for target B and A
