Xcode Server CI Bot build failure - fails to launch simulator

Question

After upgrading to Xcode7 the bots we have set up are failing to build with the following error:

2015-09-23 15:57:22.989 xcodebuild[23194:3737599] [MT] iPhoneSimulator: Could not launch simulator: -1712
xcodebuild: error: Failed to build workspace *XXX* with scheme YYY.

Reason: The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -1712.) 

The bots are set up to run against iPads with IOS 9.0.

Please suggest me.

Thank you.

I too faced the same issue with Xcode 7, but after restarting both the OS X server as well as the server machine where OS X server installed, the error got resolved. I guess its some launch issue problem with simulator.
