Getting the simulator to work

Post by Jellicle » Tue Mar 01, 2011 12:23 pm

I'm getting this error message when I try to launch the iOS simulator:

"Unabled to build app for simulation: could not find plist template for simulator 4.3 target"

In Mobile Support in the LiveCode preferences, for location of developer root for iOS 3.2 and above, I have the iOS SDK path set to /Developer, which reflects the location of that folder.

Within that folder, I have /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS4.3.sdk.

In the Standalone Application Settings I have selected 3.2 as the minimun iOS version setting - everything else is as per the defaults.

Anyone got a suggestion for fixing this? What am I missing?

In the Mobile Support section of Preferences, there's a list of Available simulators at the bottom. Is 4.3 included in that list? If not, check /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs
