When building the project for distribution using the Archive build mode, the following error appears. When building in debug or release mode everything works fine. The mentioned directory is empty. The directory permissions are set to full access for the current user. Any ideas?

Ok, i figured it out:
I don’t exactly know why Xcode wanted to delete a file that wasn’t existent at that location in the first place, but it think it had to do with the project file which was broken for no apparent reason.
The way i fixed it was to just delete all the Localizable.strings files from the project ( i had 6 for different languages each in its own .lproj directory ) and then add them again one by one. –
