xcode-select active developer directory error
Saw the following error when running an npm install which required node-gyp... but could be triggered by anything which requires xcode-select. xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance What is the problem?
This problem happens when xcode-select developer directory was pointing to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools when a full regular Xcode was required (happens when CommandLineTools are installed after Xcode) Solution: Install Xcode (get it from https://appstore.com/mac/apple/xcode) if you don't have it yet. Accept the Terms and Conditions. Ensure Xcode app is in the /Applications directory (NOT /Users/{user}/Applications). Point xcode-select to the Xcode app Developer directory using the following command: sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer Note: Make sure your Xcode app path is correct. Xcode: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer Xcode-beta: /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer
