Error in opening .xcworkspace

Question

I integrated pods in my project specifically SignalR, AFNetworking and SocketRocket. It was successfully installed, but when I opened .xcworkspace, this error shows:

enter image description here

This is what the project navigator looks like

Has anyone encountered this kind of error? Thanks in advance.

Update: My .xcodeproj has appeared. But the frameworks appear red. How can I solve this?

Looks like you kept the .xcodeproj open & trying to open the .xcworkspace file. Please close .xcodeproj file & then open the .xcworkspace again.. — Nilesh Patel, May 04 '15 at 07:03
@NileshPatel no, I already closed and quitted xcode. My .xcodeproj doesn't seem to have arrow down to its left. I don't know why — Apple Ramos, May 04 '15 at 07:53
Its not an error.. I can see the same thing in my project.. Are you not able run your project due to that? — Nilesh Patel, May 04 '15 at 08:21
I guess not. But I'm trying to build my project and I'm having this error: Lexical or Preprocessor Issue: 'AFHTTPClient.h' file not found — Apple Ramos, May 04 '15 at 08:26

Have you tried restarting Xcode? If that doesn't work, I would try removing the Pods/ folder and re-doing a pod install.

Sure, you can try that. – Anas May 04 '15 at 04:18
In the other thread, some people mentioned fixing it by first closing every workspace from the File menu before quitting Xcode. One even solved it by killing the process as well. – Anas May 04 '15 at 04:19
Hi @AppleRamos , can you please tell me how did you solve this, i am having the same issue. – OSD Oct 03 '16 at 07:22
Removing `Pods/` folder and running `pod install` worked for me – CharleyXIV Nov 21 '17 at 13:47

I did not have exactly the same error, but when I tried opening my .xcworkspace file, XCode did not display anything. I managed to solve the problem by:

Deleting the .xcworkspace
Deleting the Pods folder
With my terminal, I navigated to the path where Pod file was and executed the pod install command, which re-generated the .xcworkspace file as well as the Pods folder

Then the project could open up just fine.

An improvement to サソリ's answer. I had the same problem and what I did was,

deleted .xcworkspace
run pod install in terminal

Thats it. The newly created .xcworkspace works fine for me.
