macOS 14 with Xcode 16.2 missing iOS 18.2 SDK #11335

lardieri · 2025-01-08T23:37:17Z

Description

macOS 14 (Intel) worker machines with Xcode 16.2 installed are missing the iOS 18.2 SDK. Unknown if this affects Arm64 workers.

This causes the following error during the Xcode archive step:

Is it regression?

Yes

Expected behavior

Build completes successfully, as it does on Xcode 16.1

Actual behavior

Error: iOS 18.2 is not installed. To use with Xcode, first download and install the platform

Repro steps

Create a pipeline that archives an iOS app to prepare it for upload to App Store.
Run this pipeline on a macOS 14 worker with Xcode 16.2

Hi @lardieri We began our weekly deployment of macOS 14 and macOS 14-arm64 images on Monday. The current Xcode version, 16.2 Release Candidate along with iOS 18.2 SDK, is expected to be available within 1–2 days. We will provide an update here once the VM rollout is complete. Thank you for your patience.

Baza207 · 2025-01-09T14:49:39Z

@sureshe456 That might be the case, but it doesn't seem to include any simulators with the 18.2 version. Only ones for 18.1, as per the docs as of today at least. https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/macos/macos-14-Readme.md

The SDK for 18.2 is included, but no simulators use it for macOS-14 or macOS-14-arm64. 😞

PR Referene: #11315

I'm running into this issue as well on the new 20250106.587 macos-14 image while attempting to use xcode 16.2. I'm given errors that no destinations could be found for the scheme when using 16.2, but 16.1 works fine. I'm not specifying destinations. Seems the 16.2 SDK is good, but the simulators are missing.

Error:

xcodebuild: error: Found no destinations for the scheme 'My Scheme name' and action clean.

I see similar to @egg-r trying to use a simulator (iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (6th generation),OS=17.4) listed in the readme with Xcode 16.2:

My runner today used image version 20250109.625. The same things works ok with Xcode 16.1. I'm using Azure DevOps Pipelines which shares the same runner images.

We are having similar issues, iOS, we can see that iOS 18.2 SDK is now available on macOS14 runner.
Our build works, however the UI Test don't launch the iOS 18.2 simulator.
