Hi, today I upgraded Xcode to Version 16.4 (16F6) and the Simulator to version Version 16.0 (1042.1) since then I get the following message in the debugger with any project when running the simulator: load_eligibility_plist: Failed to open /Users/xxxx/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/1B9FA609-7502-42DE-93A8-B856E2618A7F/data/Containers/Data/Application/4FA1B071-A5F1-4E00-B3AC-630E273DD900/private/var/db/eligibilityd/eligibility.plist: No such file or directory

I have checked other similar questions but in my case I do not have Cocoapods installed.

Did you try to perform a Clean Build Folder ?

Does it prevent the app from running ? If not, that's probably just debugger noise. It already happened in the past: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762815

Did you file a bug report ?

1.- I have now performed a Clean Build Folder. I get the same message.

2.- I have checked in detail at least 10 projects and all of them run smoothly.

3.- I have not filed a bug report.

If I debug any project in a physical device (IPhone 16 Pro) I do not get the message in the debugger so I guess it is something related with the Simulator.

Thanks.

Yes, that looks like debugger noise.

Good continuation, don't forget to close the thread.

I am getting the same issue. In my case, in addition to the above message, it fails to run correctly in the simulator. (It attaches and stops at a black screen)
