iPhone 5S Specific Error: No architectures to compile for (ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=YES, active arch=arm64, VALID_ARCHS=armv7 armv7s)

Question

My app uses a few libraries that are iPhone hardware specific and do not run on the simulator. My app complies and runs fine on an iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1, iPod Touch 5G with iOS 7.0 and iPhone 4 with iOS 6.

However, when I try to compile it to a specific iPhone 5S with iOS 7.1, I get the following error, which doesn't make much sense to me:

No architectures to compile for (ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=YES, active arch=arm64, VALID_ARCHS=armv7 armv7s).

As a note, this works on other iPhone 5S's - it's just this specific.

Answer 1

Have you tried looking at your project settings and making sure that under Architectures, Valid Architectures includes arm64 ? It looks like it's only including armv7 and armv7s . Make sure the architectures are included as such:

You may also decide to set Build Active Architecture Only to No so it can build regardless of what architecture you're connected to.
