Question

I just upgraded my Xcode, now when I try to open my project, I get this error:

Project /Users/xxx/xxxx/xxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxxxx.xcodeproj cannot be opened: PBXContainerItemProxy (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) is missing a containerPortal key

I have searched the web and stackoverflow, but cannot get anything relevent to come up at all regarding this.

I do have Three20 as part of my project, I don’t know if that matters. I just upgraded to xcode 4.4.1

Thanks for any insight.

Answer 1

the project icon which we see i.e projectname.xcodeproj, is actually a directory, you do this

1. in terminal do cd yourproject.xcodeproj
2.ls
3.vi project.pbxproj
4. scroll down till /* Begin PBXContainerItemProxy section */
5.there you will see all sections check for the section which is missing a portal key edit it and save it :wq it will work

in image if you see the first section is missing container portal key.just pic it from other section and replace it..

it will work 😀 see this link
