Fixing Xcode path

xcrun: error: active developer path (“/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer”) does not exist

Ever faced this issue?

Xcode comes bundled with a set of command-line tools which are required by some of the other tools like gcc or cmake.

But sometimes due to various reasons like uninstalling Xcode or moving the Xcode application to a different path, you might face issues with the Xcode cli.

Best way to fix this?

You can remove the existing Xcode CLI tools with the below command

sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

Later, you can install the tools again

xcode-select --install

Still, facing the issue?

You can try this command to reset the path

sudo xcode-select --reset
