Fixing file 'project.pch' has been modifie

问题:

I was recently working on my application messing around in the info.plist section, and since that my application will not run on my test device:

file 'project.pch' has been modified since the precompiled header was built

Something to note is that the app runs fine in the simulator.

---

Edit: Now I am getting this error instead of the other one:

No such file or directory (/Users/Me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyProject-abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/MyApp./MyApp)

How to regenerate the info.plist file?

回答1:

You could try a deep clean (not the same as Product > Clean) - Option+Command+Shift+K

Note: this means the clean the build folder (by pressing Option + Product -> clean folder)

回答2:

1. Close your project or workspace.
2. In Finder: ⇧shift+⌘cmd+G
3. Paste: ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/
4. Delete the ModuleCache folder and empty trash.
5. Open up your project.
6. Clean: ⇧shift+⌘cmd+K
7. Build: ⌘cmd+B

回答3:

In my case the error message had a small hint:

note: after modifying system headers, please delete the module cache at '~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/5CYAJ91AZCB7'

I tried and it worked.

回答4:

Simply touching the project's pch file solved this issue it for me :

touch Test.pch

回答5:

• Product -> Clean
• Product + Option -> Clean Build Folder
• Close Project or Workspace
• Clean 'ModuleCache' path in Finder.

Worked for me in Xcode6 GM and iOS 8.0.

回答6:

When the .h file of a Library Provided with Xcode is changed (even a space), this error could occur.

The following maybe tried in order to fix this issue

• In, Project -> Build Settings, change Precompile Prefix Header to NO

  OR

• Run rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData and Clean Build

I constantly had this since upgrading from Xcode 4.6 to Xcode 5 with iOS projects when using command line build (xcodebuild).

What worked for me is to use this as command line build command:

xcodebuild -project path/to/my.xcodeproj -configuration Debug clean build

Before this, I've tried:

• Clean the project in Xcode GUI.
• Delete the offending pch file.
• Delete the offending pch file's parent folder.
• Delete the DerivedData project folder.

None of the above worked for me under Xcode 5.0.2, Mavericks, iOS7.

Note that the problem didn't happen to me when using Xcode GUI.

回答8:

I just go to directory "/$HOME/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/", delete everything there

回答9:

Just Click Product from the menu and select Clean

Product>Clean

Worked fine for me.

回答10:

I got the same problem. My error said like I need to delete the cache in the below locaition,

Users/myusername/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/3FGETKFCU0N0W

3FGETKFCU0N0W was a folder, when I deleted it and then clean build the project. Then the error disappears.

回答11:

rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/

回答12:

If you use AppCode you can try remove content form: /Users/[Username]/Library/Caches/appCode30/DerivedData/

Worked for me :)

回答13:

Also, just open terminal, and delete the .pcm file that has been generated (Xcode 6 onwards)

rm <path-to-pcm-file>

回答14:

The only solution there worked for me was running the following command:

sudo rm -R /var/folders/

But that gave me a lot of troubles in OS X.

I thought because /var/folders/ is for temporary files it should be okay to just empty anything in it. But I was wrong see the following post: link

And the problem you described occurred every-time I tried to build my Xcode project - I'm building it from the CLI though Jenkins.

Which means I couldn't run the rm command every-time. So I found some inspirations and wrote the following ruby script which solved my problem:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'fileutils'

cache = Dir.glob("/var/folders/**/com.apple.DeveloperTools*")
FileUtils.rm_rf(cache)

I hope it would be helpful to someone.

回答15:

If you get this when switching between git branches, try adding this post-checkout hook which will clean your project every time you change branch.

!/bin/sh
xcodebuild clean -configuration Debug

Save as .git/hooks/post-checkout relative to your project root and don't forget chmod +x .git/hooks/post-checkout

回答16:

For me, this problem is only occurring in Xcode 6 beta version, So I switch back to Xcode 5, and now problem is solved.

I tried all the steps suggested by all users here, but no one worked for me.

So, if you have both versions of Xcode and have issue only in Xcode 6 beta, then switch to Xcode 5 and clean the project, problem will be solved.

回答17:

I tried these one by one but failed to build and run my project. So I changed Precompile Prefix Header to NO as mentioned by @Abhilash Gopal, then I reset the simulator,deleted the derived data, removed the corresponding .pcm file(In my case it was the UIImage.h from UIKit framework, so removed the UIKit.pcm).Then I cleaned the project and only then I was able to build it successfully. In earlier versions of Xcode these files were locked basically and were not allowed to edit. But its not the case now. Hope this helps someone who face the same situation.

回答18:

Deleting project.xcworkspace did a trick for me.

project.xcworkspace is a directory which describes schema of current Xcode workspace state. Each time Xcode is launched it will regenerate project.xcworkspace if not exist already.

In order to delete project.xcworkspace:

• Right click on your project file yourProject.xcodeproj
• From drop-down menu choose Show Package Content
• Purge xcworkspace file

回答19:

If you are building on command line using xcodebuild remove '-parallelizeTargets' option passed to the command. That fixed the issue for me

回答20:

After going through a lot of answers and helpful suggestions, I found out the solution to be: Uninstall Xcode 6 and reinstall it through the available dmg file and then install all the components for Xcode.

Product + Option -> Clean Build Folder, Clean Build Project, Deleting Module Cache files and Derived data files, using touch .pch, deleting pcm file, using command line to remove var/folders (Surprisingly, all of this did not help in my case)

Was stuck at it for more than 3 hours before finding the solution. Hope this helps someone.

Thanks.

回答21:

Just open terminal and fire below command:

rm /Users/pratik/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/LKL48GNAN6S7/UIKit-2X95M2Q1NPNPL.pcm

give your file path which return .pcm error. and then Clean Project and Run...Enjoy!!!
