build problem in xcode

Question

On all the sample projects from apple's site (like Simple Drill Down) when I do a compile I get "copystrings failed with exit code 71".

And old project of mine compiles. Seems to be be an issue with localized strings: "copystrings failed with exit code 71" My old project doesn't have any localized strings of course.

here is a screenshot: http://img.skitch.com/20090722-rn5gbps4f9endan6xpa5gegmbp.png

The error also indicates XCode can't find copystrings, but here it is:

here is an "ls" of the directory in question: pswenson@zeppelin /Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources]$ ls copystrings -rwxrwxr-x 1 root admin 7689 Jul 2 17:52 copystrings [pswenson@zeppelin /Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources]$

any ideas?

What version of Xcode are you running? Because the newer projects will require Xcode 3.0 and up to compile

Or it could be related to: copyplist failed with exit code 71

It's the ruby issue as you suggested in your link. I figured this out a couple days ago as well. Lesson is: don't mess with the built in install of ruby. If you want a new install of ruby, leave the old one alone.
