macOS Xcode Clean failed rm:fts_read: No such file or directory.

Hi All,

I have a xcodeproj file which has some dependency on other frameworks. The target have "Copy Files" event ( New build Phase -> New Copy Files Build Phase). This event copies some frameworks into "FrameWorks" destination. It perfectly build and run. But when I clean it, It failed with error message :

Checking Dependies:
Removing /(full path)/heloworld_debug.app
rm: /(full path)/heloworld_debug.app/Contents/FrameWorks//myFrameWork1.framework/Versions/A:Not a directory
Command /bin/rm failed with exit code 1
Removing /(full path)/heloworld_debug.app
rm: /(full path)/heloworld_debug.app/Contents/FrameWorks//myFrameWork2.framework/Versions/A:Not a directory
rm:fts_read: No Such file or directory.
Command /bin/rm failed with exit code 1

When I clean again, it is cleaned properly without any error.

If I delete the Copy Files from target, the clean work properly.

Where does the problem lies?

I am using Xcode 3.0 and Mac OS X version 10.5 “Leopard”

Thanks in anticipation,
Kapil

Hi All,

I have built a test sample to demonstrate the issue. I have used dummy source file and carbon framework which is copied to target's Contents\Frameworks\...

You can download the sample from

Please look into and suggest me what is wrong here.

Thanks,

Hi All,

I have found out the problem.

In xcconfig file I am setting
DEPLOYMENT_LOCATION YES

INSTALL_PATH and DSTROOT is set so that they are placing the binary in same place as is it produced by building. This is causing a link to be placed in executable package pointing to the executable.
Contents

Executable package /
\ Shortcut to “Executable Package”

Clean fails due to this linking.

Thanks,
Kapil
