Failed to chmod user/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices NO Such File Or directory

Question

When i try to run my app in iPhone 6 simulator, i am getting following error. I am using Xcode 8.1 can any one please help me to understand this issue

I had this issue as well. Cleaning the project fixed the issue for me. — Stonz2, Nov 16 '16 at 15:30
To expand on that, it started happening again shortly after my clean. After repeating the process a couple times, quitting Xcode and Simulator, the problem finally stopped coming up (for now). — Stonz2, Nov 16 '16 at 16:36
Right by quitting XCode resolved my problem too, it's weird. — Asad Amodi, Nov 18 '16 at 11:19
@huync Just delete your app from simulator then run, if it is not solved your issue , reset your simulator .. — Vaisakh, Nov 19 '16 at 14:49
Can we ask the obvious question here ... why not just delete the cache? — AlxVallejo, Jun 29 '17 at 22:33

I had this issue, where it would run it every time I deleted the app from the simulator, but when I tried to run it second time this error would show.

I solved it by resetting the iOS Simulator from the top bar menu.

Xcode 9.0: Hardware → Erase All Content and Settings...

Pre Xcode 9.0: Simulator → Reset Content and Settings...

You can also solve this issue by just rebooting your simulator. there is no need to reset the simulator.

Check the Schema name and Executable file name in plistfile. both should be same.

I had this problem with an app that contained an embedded Sticker extension.

To work around it I first installed the app without the Sticker extension, I did this by clicking the Sticker.appex in the Products group and removing the app 'Target Membership' using the Inspector panel.

Once the app was installed, I could re-toggle the target membership and install the app with the Sticker extension.

I'd added ios platform with sudo. That why it happened. Now I do it without sudo, it works well.

Please follow below steps to fix it:

Remove platform (with sudo) $ sudo ionic cordova platform rm ios
Add platform (without sudo) $ ionic cordova platform add ios
Emulate $ ionic cordova run ios

For solving this issue, U need to go for trial n Error. This error generally appears when you directly delete a file but missed to delete its mapping. So to resolve this, verify all the mappings in 'AddedLib', 'Resources', and 'complied Resources' sec etc.
