ios - application executable is missing a required architecture armv6

Question

I am using xCode 4.2 and trying to deploy my application. I am failing the validation with the following error message:

application executable is missing a required architecture armv6

The value for my Architectures is set to Standard (armv7). This is the ONLY option in the dropdownlist. Base SDK: iOS 5.0 (This is the only option) Deployment SDK: 3.2 Build Active Architecture Only: NO Valid Architectures: armv6 armv7 armv7f armv7k

Does anyone please know the solution to this problem?

Answer 1

In the Xcode 4.2 GM this is still a problem but you can resolve it by doing the following.

1. Switch to the files/folders view in xcode project

2. Select your Project ( the blue icon)

3. Select your Application under Targets in the middle of the screen.

4. Go To build settings

5. Find Architectures > Distribution

6. Expand this section so you can see both Debug and Release

7. Change "Standard (armv7) - $(ARCH_STANDARD_32_BIT)" to "Other..."

8. Replace, "Standard (armv7) - $(ARCH_STANDARD_32_BIT)" with "armv6", then add a new item "armv7"

Remember you may need to do this for all included projects aka frameworks such as TAPKU
