xcodebuildpermission-deniedrun-script

What permissions are required for "Run Script" during a build phase?


In the "Run Script" build phase of my project, everything works if I type in the script into the text box for "run script" in build phases.

But to make editing / diffing etc easier, I thought I would save the script as a file as part of my project, and just fill in the path in the text box instead:

Eg: I paste the following path in the text box.

/Users/superman/Documents/Projects/SomeProject/scriptname.sh

But when I try to build this, I get a "Permission Denied" message.

What can I do to fix this? If I cut/paste the actual code, then it just "works". My user account is an administrator account. No one else uses my machine.


Solution

  • You can simplify your Xcode project file a little further and not require the "bin/sh " in front of the script name.

    To avoid this, you need to turn on "execute" permissions for users (Xcode in this case) of the file.
