Unable to locate Xcode. Please make sure to have Xcode installed on your machine

Question

I'm new to Fastlane. Does anyone know how to fix this error from running

fastlane ios myLane.

The output:

[12:50:11]: fastlane finished with errors

[!] Unable to locate Xcode. Please make sure to have Xcode installed on your machine

But I have the newest Xcode (9.3.1) installed from Mac App Store.

fastlane --version

fastlane 2.95.0

which is the newest version.

ruby -v

ruby 2.3.3p222 (2016-11-21 revision 56859) [universal.x86_64-darwin17]

Try check Preferences in Xcode under Locations and be sure you have selected your Xcode version in the Command Line Tools dropdown:

Worked like a charm for Xcode 12.4, thanks – Ali Ammaar Jun 16 '21 at 14:18

Still valid. For me the dropdown showed the correct xcode even though it was not really selected – Teetz Nov 10 '22 at 14:32

Same here, it showed the correct version but I had to select it manually again – Pavel Stepanov Mar 17 '23 at 13:39
Sometimes the re-selection helps – Mr.SwiftOak Jun 23 '23 at 07:37

CLI approach:

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