Unable to boot the iOS Simulator - xcode 6.0.1

问题:

I've an error in Xcode 6.0.1 on OS X Mavericks 10.9.5.

When I debug, the iOS 8 simulator shows this error:

Unable to boot the iOS Simulator.

After few seconds Xcode shows this other error:

An error was encountered while running (Domain = DTiPhoneSimulatorErrorDomain, Code = 2)

However, the iOS 7 simulator works!!

回答1:

Do you have DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES set? Check /etc/launchd.conf and look for launchd_sim crash logs in ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports ... if so, this is a dupe of

Unable to boot iOS 8 Simulator

回答2:

At this point there seems to be a lot of problems with the simulator in XCode 6 compared to XCode 5. I've especially seen issues when switching between various deployment targets and simulator devices. Restarting the simulator usually fixes the problem and if not try restarting XCode.

I also had this problem and found the solution by doing following steps:-

 1) Initially i downloaded Xcode 6 library in Documentation section under the path Xcode --> Preferences --> Downloads and restart my xcode but didn't solve my problem. 

After that -> 

2) Downloaded and installed the iOS 7.1 Simulator under the path Xcode --> Preferences --> Downloads. 

        Restart xcode again and the problem solved.

3) I am facing same issue again next morning.

       Unsetting the DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES variable solves my problem:-

 a) Open terminal and type "sudo vi /etc/launchd.conf" command and press Enter
 b) Press I "Insert" mode and change this 

             "setenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES /usr/lib/libimckit.dylib" 

                                  to this 

              "unsetenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES /usr/lib/libimckit.dylib" 

       and press esc to exit from insert mode. 

    c) Save changes by typing ":wq" Press Enter
    d) Reboot your system and problem soloved.  

Prior to that i didn't found any iOS version in front of each listed devices 
but after installation or by unsetting DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES variable i found the same in front of each devices.

Thanks lads, but i finally found a solution. For those who are still looking for solution, here is the one which helped me:

There is a file /etc/launchd.conf that will not be used by Yoseph. I just deleted it. You can unset DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES environment variable in that file too. Hope this helps you all.

Make sure you have under the path "Xcode --> Preferences --> Locations --> Command Line Tools --> Xcode 6.0 selected, if not select that. Another option is under iOS Simulator perform "Reset Content And Settings". Hope this helps!
