I’ve been trying to compile an iPhone app to test on a device, it’s properly provisioned and everything, but I’m getting the following error in xcode when I’m trying to build it:

 error: can't exec '<com.apple.tools.product-pkg-utility>' (No such file or directory)
Command <com.apple.tools.product-pkg-utility> failed with exit code 71

I’ve been looking around, but can’t figure out what the problem is. I’ve re-downloaded the SDK (including XCode) in the hopes that would fix it, but it hasn’t helped. Does anyone know what might cause this?
If you need more info, don’t hesitate to ask.

    same problem here.. And i can’t find a solution anywhere.

    Update1. Upgrading xcode3.2.3-ios sdk 4.0.1 to xcode3.2.3-ios sdk 4.0.2 did NOT help

    Update2. Uninstalling everything ( sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools –mode=all ) and
    reinstalling everything did NOT help.

    Update3. Uninstalling everything, THEN completely delete the /Developer directory ( rm -Rf /Developer )
    then reinstalling eventually solved this problem. I can now compile and run on my iphone device.

    Obviously, de-installing xcode does not remove all elements, in spite of the fact that you specify –mode=all, some pieces are still left behind.
