First Try

Cleaning the build folder resolved the issue for me. I hope it helps someone!

(While holding down the Alt-key: Product > Clean build folder)

Second Try

Launch/Relaunch the iphone simulator then go to simulator->reset contents and settings. Then,quit all the application and restart your mac.

Thanks for posting... it has been already fixed but I am not sure how as I tried lots of tricks. Hope this will help others. – Tapas Pal Jan 27 '17 at 16:41
Thanks! Second try worked. This seems to happen so rarely nowadays, that resetting the simulator is not the first thing I think of when Xcode starts acting funny. – Nitin Alabur Apr 20 '17 at 04:52
In addition to resetting the contents in simulator, also shutdown Xcode and clean the derived data folder. That worked for me. – ArdenDev May 13 '17 at 01:14

Please, check if your Bolt target has a Info.plist in Identity as the image below, if not, click on the button with title Choose Info.plist File... and choose it.

I don't have bolt target in my project, it is in under pod project and identity is not showing like yours. It's looking like other normal pod target. – Tapas Pal Dec 21 '16 at 20:04
Hi Tapas, I believe that you open the .xcodeproj file you can open the .xcworkspace and you'll see the Pods project, open it and you'll see all the target. – GeraldoBastos Dec 21 '16 at 20:08
No I open the right one. check it here https://i.stack.imgur.com/XN698.png – Tapas Pal Dec 21 '16 at 20:11
Try to delete the Pods folder and Podfile.lock and execute the pod install again. I hope that helps. – GeraldoBastos Dec 21 '16 at 20:17
I am not very sure what exact solution solved my problem.. I tried yours and also some other tricks available on internet. Now it's working fine; – Tapas Pal Dec 22 '16 at 07:22

I had the same problem, then I quitted XCode and run it again, everything started working fine. – mimic Dec 29 '16 at 19:56

Another trick that might work is to **quit** iPhone Simulator and try again. – carlos_ms Jan 06 '17 at 21:06

Check your bundle identifier. If you create your project with bundle identifier like com.example.com and then you change your bundle identifier then it causes above error.I have same issue, then i check my bundle identifier which i was set during project setup & then i change it it causes above error.

It should be the bundle identifier has changed, restart the simulator should fix it. – Raymond Liao Jul 24 '17 at 14:52
