This question is similar if not identical but there is no solution. I've looked inside the archive and there's only one executable, so I am at a loss as to how to proceed. Any ideas greatly appreciates.
In hindsight the error is straightforward. An executable file was accidentally added to the project. In my case "Develop!.app/Xcode
" meant that Xcode was the executable. Checking the list of files in the project I found a symlink to Xcode. (Maybe I dragged it from the dock somehow and dropped it into the project).
If you are getting this error look at the files in your project -- there is an executable there somewhere.
