I am trying to build an app (with ARC) that uses the facebook_ios_sdk (the latest version on github). As recommended by Facebook, I used the build script to create a static library and then added it to the project. Now when I build the project for an iPhone 5.1 Simulator, it works fine. However, on running it for an actual device (which is running 5.1), it gives the following build error -

ld: in ../facebook-ios-sdk/libfacebook_ios_sdk.a, file is universal but does not contain a(n) armv7 slice for architecture armv7
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

One work around that worked was to change the Valid Architectures from"armv6 armv7" to just armv6

You could modify the build script for static library (which was too complicated for me), or just skip the library approach:

  • add the Facebook sources from SDK to your project

  • if using ARC, go to "target->build phases->compile sources" and mark all the Facbook source files with the
    --fno-objc-arc flag

That's it, works for me.
