QtCreator Xcode 5 file not found issue

Question

I previously had qtcreator 5.1 working with Xcode 4. I now have upgraded to Xcode 5 and I am not abble to compile my previous prject with qtcreator.

When I run, I have the following error :

:-1: error : /Applications/Xcode: No such file or directory

Here are the things I have tried

1. Check that Xcode was indeed installed in /Applications/Xcode

2. I have reinstalled the developper tools with Xcode 5 but it did not work.

3. I have checked in Qt creator -> preferences -> compiler -> tab compiler. I have verified that all the compiler mentionned there can be called with the terminal

4. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Qt creator (I thought this way it may have a chance to figure out where xcode had moved)

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance

I had the same issue after installing XCode5. What you should do is to make sure XCode 5 is named as Xcode (and old Xcode deleted or renamed eg Xcode4) and run command

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