I was using command line Appium. To resolve the issue you have to switch Xcode to the proper path.

The following command will help:

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

If you have installed Xcode app in a different location, give that path instead of /Applications/Xcode.app.

回答2:

Had the same issue, the problem was that the path to XCode was in Appium was set to something like "xcode/library/developer/commandlinetools". Setting the correct path to Xcode (in my case: "MacintoshHD/Applications/Xcode 2") in the advanced iOS Settings solved the problem for me.(Xcode 7, Appium 1.4.13)

回答3:

First i reset it using sudo xcode-select --reset

and then used sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

Note: just make sure you set correct path to Xcode (Application->Xcode)

回答4:

Maybe you are using Xcode version 10 and It is not support appium because appium server problem, you can back to Xcode ver 9. or use appium beta:

npm uninstall -g appium && npm install -g appium@beta

回答5:

Best way to resolve this is to move the Xcode application into your Applications folder on mac machine.

回答6:

Xcode 11

Check whether Command Line Tools of respective Xcode Version are installed or enabled
