xcodebuild: command failed with exit code 65

See original GitHub issue

Bug Report

My app was built successfully with Cordova-ios version 5.1.1. After changing iOS engine in config.xml from 5.1.1 to 6.1.0, ‘cordova build ios’ gives error: xcodebuild: Command failed with exit code 65 Error: xcodebuild: Command failed with exit code 65 at ChildProcess.whenDone (/Users/shanlin/build/extjs_cp_time/cordova/node_modules/cordova-common/src/superspawn.js:136:25) at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:182:13) at maybeClose (internal/child_process.js:962:16) at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:251:5)

Any idea about what might be the problem?

For some background context, error 65 from xcodebuild is a generic error that simply describes that xcodebuild couldn’t do a build, which of course… pretty much anything could cause: invalid configuration, unmaintained plugins, out-dated software, etc. Without digging into more of xcodebuild output, you’re trying to find a needle in a haystack.

You may have to scan through the tons of input that xcodebuild produces or open up the XCode project located at ./platforms/ios/<App Name>.xcworkspace and try to build from XCode GUI to get a more meaningful error.
