I am not sure but you can try by enabling legacy build system in the xcode workspace and check once — guru, Nov 15 '19 at 07:04
Thank you for answering! However, it is already set to Lagacy Build System...X-( — LionKamado, Nov 15 '19 at 07:06
I would suggest unpair device and trust the computer again. let try it. — guru, Nov 15 '19 at 07:09
Thank you! Window > Devices and Simulator from Run Unpair Device I trusted again. A similar error is displayed... — LionKamado, Nov 15 '19 at 07:18
I experience the same with `Xcode 11.2.1` but with `macOS 10.15.1`. Also tried reattaching the device and restarting the OS but no luck. However trying with another device doesn't gave the error. — Laszlo, Nov 15 '19 at 10:39

@christianmini well, possibly, but that one is 5 years old, while this one is really a present issue. — Laszlo, Nov 19 '19 at 15:07

Try to build for another device, then retry with the first one.

I know this is not a real solution but that was the only what worked for me. Also I made a bug report with Apple feedback Assistant, I will update you if the gave a proper solution or response.

Update #1:

After Apple checked my sysdiagnose it was the following for me: The app is malformed. The file at "$(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).app/Frameworks/SwiftyJSON.framework/Info.plist" is missing. Frameworks must be valid bundles with an Info.plist.

My current fix:

Clean Build Folder
Remove Derived Data (use DevCleaner)
Commit all changes to git
Delete Xcode project folder
Discard uncommitted changes
Pod install
Rebuild and cross fingers

As a 0. element I will insist you to make your coffee and take a snack ...

Update #2:

Now I fell into a hole where nothing above helped. But for me, it looks like the issues framework is SwiftyJSON. I made an issue, maybe someone has a proper solution.

Update #3:

I managed to build my project using Xcode Version 11.0 (11A420a) while using the latest command line tools from Xcode 11.3 (11C29).

Update #4:

I still got this mess after changing branches, this is the latest fix order for me, which works like 90% of the time ... the other 10% is due to a missed step I guess.

Clean Build Folder
Remove Derived Data (use DevCleaner)
Pod deintegrate
Pod install
Rebuild and cross fingers

"Rebuild and cross fingers" XD – David Santiago Aug 03 '20 at 20:43 — David Santiago, Aug 03 '20 at 20:43

I'm on Apple M1, Device iOS 14.6, xcode 12.5.1

In my case Deleting project, Derived data, clean project, deinit & init pod, Delete project folder & clone it again nothing was worked out. But when I removed SwiftyJSON pod & install pod then install app on Device it was working. Then I add SwiftyJSON pod again & install pod so it was working fine. It's strange.

Before removing SwiftyJSON I had got Firebase/Crashlytics pod error which was suggesting me to run this command pod repo update.

I also faced this problem at many times:

Best solution: Try to get fresh clone of the project.

Some times below steps will work:

git reset
git checkout .
git clean -fdx

pod cache clean --all
pod install

It was an error that occurred due to a bug in the framework.
If you reinstall the problematic framework correctly
The error has disappeared.
Thank you very much.

This is not a useful answer. Please add more details about what framework caused the issue, what you did to fix the problem, steps, etc. Thank you! – Liam Bolling Jan 05 '20 at 21:38
