Solution 1:

Apple Developer Website Answers above problem Here.

Execute below command in terminal : First goto projects root folder

Solution 3:

You can fix this problem by finding files which holds finder information.

In terminal, goto project root directory and execute

ls -alR@ . > kundapura.txt 

This creates kundapura.txt in current directory. Now search for com.apple.FinderInfo and clear this attributes for all files. You can do it like this

xattr -c <filename> 

Example: xattr -c guru.png

Once you clear all then code sign works. Clean Xcode and Re Build. Cheers

Solution 4: Inspired by Mark McCorkle's Answer

In terminal, goto project's root directory and execute one by one command

  find . -type f -name '*.jpeg' -exec xattr -c {} \;   find . -type f -name '*.jpg' -exec xattr -c {} \;   find . -type f -name '*.png' -exec xattr -c {} \;   find . -type f -name '*.json' -exec xattr -c {} \; 

Clean Xcode and Re Build. Done.

Answer 2

The error is from attributes inside your image files. This happened from our graphics designer saving images from photoshop with attributes.

Here is a simple command to find all of your png files and remove their attributes. Run this in your projects root directory from terminal. Clean and rebuild; problem solved.

find . -type f -name '*.png' -exec xattr -c {} \;
