Phonegap Xcode 6.1 nsexception

Question

I am tired of looking everywhere to find and answer. I'm new to phonegap and what I just did was creating a default project, building it and then opening with Xcode in order to emulate it.

It runs well, but after a moment throws an error (or exception don't know how it's called) and what it does is just showing the image but not the text and else.

Here is the error:

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

And here is the piece of code from where the error comes:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    @autoreleasepool {
        int retVal = UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, nil, @"AppDelegate");
        return retVal;
    }
}

I'd appreciate any kind of help this is driving me mad. Regards

PS: how is it possible that I can only include code by indenting with 4 spaces I had to do this for every line, that is so impractical

Answer 1

I had the same exact issue. The cause of the problem is the Main Interface field in your General Settings. This field should be blank. Do not select MainViewController, otherwise this error will be thrown.

Here is my example of the error:
