DTAssetProviderService could not start on Xcode 7.3 following fresh reinstall of Beta

Hi,


I reinstalled my MBP fresh to test out the 10.12 Beta and try out some of the new features on XCode 8. I also have active Apps which require maintenance so I ran XCode 7.3.1.


Running XCode 7.3.1 the Simulator is giving the error DTAssetProviderService could not start. It refers me to the console log of the simulator, which has the following:

I have used the same build to install onto my device, which runs absolutely fine, so am currently testing on-device only.


A Google search has shown previous issues on previous OS builds, but most fixes seemed to be of the 'stop it and restart it', 'switch it off and back on' type solutions. Tried them but no joy.


I notice there are a couple of system entitlement issues at the top - are they causing the issue?

Also notice the 'Springboard [2466] ===^^ WE WILL UPDATE ZKW!' line - is that pointing to something missing?

I do try to establish a TCP connection in the app as you can see - I could turn this off if necessary for development versions if this is triggering an issue.


Any thoughts on how to fix it? Whilst I can test on device, I prefer to put very much development versions onto simulator only, so my device is available if I want to show anyone a 'stable pre-release' without worrying about partly-finished features.


Many thanks.

I can reciprocate just the same error with almost similar system logs! Did you find any workaround?

I've run into this as well. I haven't been able to find any way to run apps on the simulator with Xcode 7.3 on macOS 10.12

I've got the same issue. I've tried everything. Cleans, reseting sim, quitting all application, restarting computer, and removing all xcode versions and reinstalling 7.3. Nothing works.

Removing and re-installing Xcode 7.3.1 using the .dmg file from the developer downloads page (not the App Store) fixed this for me.

I had exactly the same problem with Xcode 8 Beta, and the same workaround, ie. delete from Applications and re-download from the Developer Downloads folder, worked also.
