Swift App Development Error - Thread 1 Signal SIGABRT


I know this question has been asked multiple times before, but using all the information gained from their answers, my project still crashes!

I am learning App Development, using the iBook Intro to App Development with Swift, in Apple's Everyone Can Code series. I am using Chapter 17.3, which is Multiple Actions and Outlets, and I am following the code and videos exactly as shown, however, when I flick the first switch, the View object should turn red, but it doesn't, and flicking the two other switches crashes the app, with the error Thread 1: signal SIGABRT. The console error is this:

Here are screenshots of my ViewController and Main.storyboard files:

Also, after my app crashes, something weird happens: new outlets (filled dots) are created on lines 33 & 48, where there is nothing relating to outlets whatsoever.

Please let me know if you need any more information/code, I would appreciate all help!


Solution

  • This

    [ColorMix.ViewController greenSwitch:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance

    means that you have created an IBAction named greenSwitch then deleted it , so try to remove it from the switch in IB , or create that action inside the VC
