macOS Xcode exited error 5... help me!

I was building a program for mac. It works and then the next time I try it I get
error 5. Here is what I got from the debugger...

The Debugger has exited due to signal 5 (SIGTRAP).The Debugger has exited due to signal 5 (SIGTRAP).

Then when I look at the program in the folder it shows a (\) sign on it

That looks like an incomplete path for NSTask. Is that your app being run by XCode or a task you are launching from within your app?

I would guess you have a corrupted project file. First check project settings to see if you can spot a problem. For me, the next step would be to reconstitute the project by creating a new one and copying everything into it (except for the project file itself) - a lot of work, yes, but if it fixes the problem, worth it. If it still fails, you my try pulling pref (.plist) files to force XCode to rebuild them.
