"Symbols not found" when using 'rake device'

I am getting the following error when running rake device on any RubyMotion project

*** symbols not found in `/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/7.0': debugger might be slow to attach

How do I fix this?

Solution

  • The Symbols folder is missing in the DeviceSupport/7.0 folder.

    cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/7.0
sudo ln -s ../../Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.0.sdk Symbols

    After that you should have the following symbolic link in your 7.0 folder

    Symbols -> ../../Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.0.sdk

    That solved it for me.

    There was a similar problem in iOS 4.2.1 Xcode 4.3.2: https://stackoverflow.com/a/4453666/1095510
