Interface Builder could not open the document ".storyboard" because it does not exist

Question

This problem is getting me really crazy. Xcode is looking for a storyboard in my project in a differente location from my project. I tryed removing the file, adding it again, cleaning the project, etc but didn't have luck.

This is the error.

cd /Users/fmartin91/Projects/loovin/loovin-ios
setenv IBSC_MINIMUM_COMPATIBILITY_VERSION 7.0
setenv PATH "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
setenv XCODE_DEVELOPER_USR_PATH /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/..

Answer 1

I could fix this bug by killing ibtoold:

$ sudo killall -9 ibtoold

Why does ibtool need a daemon anyway?

Answer 2

Your storyboard is not in NSBundle mainbundle. this problem is probably due a "Copy Bundle Resources" in "Build phases" problem.

For corrected it verify if your storyboard file is in "Copy Bundle Resources" for all targets. On project navigator select the project file select Build phases tab and check it is.
