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

I tried that and it didn't work but I found the answer. I just had to reset the developer's path:

$ sudo xcode-select --reset

Now everything is normal

Mostly this error occurs when you have installed a newer version of xcode. And the command line tools are yet to be initialized.

To resolve this: Go under Xcode Preferences > Locations (tab) > And the bottom options is Command Line Tools. Please select the Xcode version for tools.

Example (For Xcode 10.0 (10A255) ): Go under Xcode Preferences > Locations (tab) > And the bottom options is Command Line Tools. Select Xcode 10.0 (10A255).

For more details please see the attached image. Hope it helps.

In my case, I had uninstalled Xcode and then issues with git cli started. I solved the problem running the following commands:

$ sudo xcode-select -r
$ sudo xcode-select --switch /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

and then validating new path with:

$ sudo xcode-select -p

Hope this helps!

I have faced the same issue as I have uninstalled the XCode abruptly, running the below command (from Terminal) helped me to resolve this.

sudo xcode-select -switch /

This error coming because xcode get deleted, corrupt or moved. In my case i removed xcode from my Mac and faced the same issue.

I fixed it by simple two steps

Open Terminal Simply run following command

sudo xcode-select -r

And now error has resolved. Hope it will helpful.

Use this:

sudo xcode-select -switch /

This should solve the problem.

How about what the error suggests? Did you try that?

xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

That should do the trick.

For me it helps to install Xcode CLI xcode-select --install after uninstalling XCode (I don't develop for the OSx or iOS)

Then I could successfully build downloaded source with make

Try error suggestion :

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

And Then test Git Executable Path.

In my case such error occurred after I has tried to symbolicate crash report, and according to a manual, entered command export DEVELOPER_DIR=”/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer”

I tried some proposed here solutions but nothing helped.

Then I realized that I have added an environment variable DEVELOPER_DIR to my terminal and this led to error: "xcrun: error: missing DEVELOPER_DIR path:"

Then I've just reboot my terminal, that cleaned the environment variable and the error disappeared.

(FYI: environment variables may be checked with printenv command in terminal)

I had the same problem and had to remove completely Developer tools, and reinstall:

$ rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
$ xcode-select --install

Tip: because Xcode had been improperly uninstalled, I had to manually (re)move the Xcode app, too:

$ mv /Applications/Xcode.app/ /Applications/Xcode.app.bak
