When I select IPA distribution method as development and try to export, I am getting this same error for all my projects, and I am not using python anywhere so why I am getting this error. Please help me to solve this error.
I am using Xcode 9.2
ipatool failed with an exception:#<RuntimeError: Couldn't locate python in /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/local/bin /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/libexec /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/local/bin /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Tools /usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin>

I found the problem, thanks to Alper to guiding me in the right direction, when we create or export an IPA Xcode needs python which is located in /usr/bin/python path, and in my case I have installed python but it was not on that location, so I search for python executable file in my system and copy paste that executable file on this /usr/bin/ location, and it work's.
