Answer 1

Set your Build Active Architecture Only to YES, then it will work

Answer 2

This happened to me. I'm using a static library in my project and the issue was that I put the aggregate with the universal script as a target instead of using the library itself.

This happens when the universal script tries to generate the universal library but the library itself is not compiled, this script needs the library to be created before running.

Answer 3

In Xcode 7.2 I had to set Enable Bitcode to No in Build Settings > Build Options.

Answer 4

I ran into this problem while migrating my project from Xcode 5.0.2 to Xcode 6.1. These are the steps that I followed to get it working.

1. There was a warning generated - "Used recommended settings ... blah blah" - I allowed Xcode to change my project to whatever recommended settings there was.This did not stop the error though.

2. In TARGET -> BUILD SETTINGS -> BUILD ACTIVE ARCHITECTURES ONLY . I turned the flag to YES.

3. set TARGET -> BUILD SETTINGS -> Linking -> Other Linker Flags : $(OTHER_LDFLAGS)

After step 3 -I cleaned and then build my project and Whoa the error just vanished!!!!!
