How can I resolve “Error: No developer directory found at /Developer”?

Question

I just upgraded XCode to 4.3.1. I\'m using a script to build (and then deploy through Testflight) my app. But I now receive this error:

Error: No deve

Answer 1

This solved for me:

Mostly this error occurs when you have installed a newer version of xcode. And the command line tools are yet to be initialized.

To resolve this: Go under Xcode Preferences > Locations (tab) > And the bottom options is Command Line Tools. Please select the Xcode version for tools.

Example (For Xcode 8.3.3): Go under Xcode Preferences > Locations (tab) > And the bottom options is Command Line Tools. Select Xcode 8.3.3 (7D1014).

Answer 2

sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Answer 3

You could also do this instead ...

sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer /Developer

Answer 4

Everything you guys answered is correct. But for those who hit the following error are missing a step:

Error:

  "xcode-select: Error: Path "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer" is not a directory."

Missing step:

Double click your xcode 432.dmg. Now don't double click the xcode.app to use it. Instead copy it /Applications folder and then open it from there to install xcode.

Now use terminal command

 sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Thats it. Your error won't happen again and Filemerge will work now.
