Error: The file “Info.plist” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file


This error happens when the system can not locate the info.plist file from your file hierarchy.

Consider this situation: I moved the info.plist file to the group "Others" like this..

enter image description here

Goto Target - Tap Build Settings - Find "info.plist"

enter image description here

Here, the system will search the info.plist in AddModifyDelete folder. But the actual file is under AddModifyDelete/Others. So, change it to AddModifyDelete/Others/info.plist

Now it should work!!

Note: This is also applicable to entitlements file. We should define the right path for both info.plist & entitlements file to avoid this error.
