PBXCp错误：/…/Pods/Pods.debug.xcconfig：没有这样的文件或目录

Question

I have taken checkout of project and getting error as :

PBXCp Error : /.../Pods/Pods.debug.xcconfig: No such file or directory

Why is this so? Also what does PBXCp mean?

This is same Pods issue I'm facing.

Answer 1

Some possible solutions:

1. Try relaunching Xcode.
2. Close Xcode, run pod install (If there's an update waiting for CocoaPods, update it); then, open it again. Xcode might have failed to pick up changes while it is open.
3. Check that the xcconfig files are set in your project to the CocoaPods generated xcconfig files. Goto Project > Info > Configurations

And remember, always open workspace (.xcworkspace) file.

Answer 2

PBXCp is a build utility; it copies files.

Your error is caused by it trying to copy a file, and not finding the file at the expected location.

I'm getting this error as I try to build an extension for an App that is not building; PBXCp is trying to install the extension, which did build properly, into an app bundle that doesn't exist, which fails.

Since you're using CocoaPods, the advice on reinstalling is good. You could also be getting this error if you have a lot of compile steps that depend on one another; try building your project scheme-by-scheme, once, and that might at least get bundle directories into all the places they're needed.
