I have just taken possession of a new Mac Book Pro and have just installed Xcode from the 10.6 install disk, launched Xcode, made a really basic Cocoa-AppleScript Application, ran build in debug mode, pushed a few buttons on my app, then quit the app and closed Xcode, went to re-open the Xcode project and a dialog pops up saying

Project /Users/Budgie/Desktop/Untitled/Untitled.xcodeproj cannot be opened because it is missing its project.pbxproj file.

what possibly could the problem be, and how can I rectify it please.

Budgie

just to add to this i have just created a new Cocoa-AppleScript Application done nothing with it, gone to close it by clicking on the the red x and the project throws an error

ERROR; The project “TEST2.xcodeproj” failed to save. Do you wish to continue closing the project?

#2

The first thing I’d suggest would be to download and install the latest version of Xcode (3.2.2).

ok, just downloaded 3.2.3 installed, created a new Cocoa-AppleScript Application, saved it to the desktop, clicked on the red x to close, error thrown:

The project “Untitled.xcodeproj” failed to save. Do you wish to continue closing the project?

so I click close, then try to re-open, error thrown:

Project /Users/Budgie/Desktop/Untitled/Untitled.xcodeproj cannot be opened because it is missing its project.pbxproj file.

repaired permissions, same issue again, any ideas?

just created a new account, in which xcode performed correctly, so it’s a permission issue im guessing, but where to look?

#5

The Xcode stuff is in /Developer. You could try deleting it and reinstalling.

repaired permissions again and then did a restart again, and wolla it runs fine now in the user account that xcode did not run correctly in, cheers for your input Shane.
