App does not exist at path error while running the calabash-ios test even though app exists in the right path

Question

x-code : 8.0

App does not exist at path or is not an app bundle.

/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/app/DeviceAgent-Runner.app

Bundle must:

1. be a directory that exists,
2. have a .app extension,
3. contain an Info.plist,
4. and the app binary (CFBundleExecutable) must exist (ArgumentError) /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/app.rb:19:in initialize' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/ios_device_manager.rb:86:innew' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/ios_device_manager.rb:86:in launch' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/client.rb:1233:inlaunch_cbx_runner' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/client.rb:264:in launch' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop/device_agent/client.rb:140:inrun' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/run_loop-2.2.2/lib/run_loop.rb:113:in run' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/calabash-cucumber-0.20.3/lib/calabash-cucumber/launcher.rb:408:inblock in new_run_loop' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/calabash-cucumber-0.20.3/lib/calabash-cucumber/launcher.rb:406:in times' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/calabash-cucumber-0.20.3/lib/calabash-cucumber/launcher.rb:406:innew_run_loop' /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/calabash-cucumber-0.20.3/lib/calabash-cucumber/launcher.rb:365:in relaunch' /Users/sbg1/Documents/SBGcode/GitCucumber_trunk/sbg-mobile-test/banking/PBBI/features/ios/support/01_launch.rb:28:inBefore'

Answer 1

Calabash iOS no longer supports Apple's system ruby.

We recommend you install ruby 2.3.1 with rbenv. We recommend you avoid rvm.

Please see this wiki page for details.

Answer 2

Verify that /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/gems/run_loop-4.1.0/lib/run_loop/device_agent/app/DeviceAgent-Runner.app exists.

For me, only DeviceAgent-Runner.app.zip was in the app directory and once I unzipped it to DeviceAgent-Runner.app Calabash iOS worked.
