React-native: Print: Entry, ":CFBundleIdentifier", Does Not Exist

[stief510]

I am running react-native run-ios and this is the error I am getting. Doing sudo beforehand does not fix the problem. Same with setting the permissions on the folder.

@ms88privat Those solutions there haven't helped. I tried them

Worked after upgrading XCode to 7.3.1

Strange.
If your run
/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c Print:CFBundleIdentifier ios/build/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/AwesomeProject.app/Info.plist

Print: Entry, ":CFBundleIdentifier", Does Not Exist

But if you run
/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c Print:CFBundleIdentifier ios/build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/AwesomeProject.app/Info.plist
(one build on path)

org.reactjs.native.example.AwesomeProject

Is not exist /build/Build on my AwesomeProject IOS.
Any help?
Txs!

node v6.2.2
react-native-cli: 1.0.0
react-native: 0.29.0-rc.0
xcode 7.3.1
OSX 10.11.4

[florismettey]

I had the error:

Failed to install the requested application
An application bundle was not found at the provided path.
Provide a valid path to the desired application bundle.
Print: Entry, ":CFBundleIdentifier", Does Not Exist

I found the issue: do NOT use space in your project path!

[huynhquocthai]

Xcode 8.2 still occur same error. Three lines bellow fixed it for me :)
Downgrade react(16.0.0-alpha.12 -> 16.0.0-alpha.6) & react-native(0.45.0 -> 0.44.0)
rm -rf node_modules/react
npm i [email protected] -S
npm i [email protected] -S
Then run react-native run-ios

@huynhquocthai thx😁

[aliv1]

@huynhquocthai u da man! Thx!

As @florismettey said, I was using a space in my product name.
To fix it without affecting the Display name (bellow the app):

Open your project and select your target.
Go to Build Settings, search "product name" and remove any space in it.

It should work after that.

Just open your Xcode

After I have spent a whole day trying to follow every possible suggestion, I took a detailed look on my terminal finally ! :)

So here is what was my problem:

Above :CFBundleIdentifier", Does Not Exist error i had another one that stated that lRCTBEEPickerManager module was not able to install, so I open my Xcode project => Build phases= > Link Binary with Libraries

I removed the stated module (lRCTBEEPickerManager) and error was gone.

Hope this will help someone.
