Thanks for bringing this up, weā€™re looking into it

Thanks, I look forward to a resolution so I can start using Ionic!

@raboine - weā€™ve pushed a new version. Please try that out and let us know if that fixes it!

Works perfectly now, thanks!

I have iOS Simulator 8.1 (550.3) but the emulate isnā€™t working properly. Any idea what Iā€™m doing worg here? Thanks, Ben

Do you have xcode 6.0 or higher? Do you also have ios-sim?
Iā€™ve had this happen to me before as well, easy way to fix it is to have the simulator started before you emulate.

Xcode Version 6.1.1 (6A2008a). Is ios-sim just the simulator? If not, can you please send me a link? I am able to launch my regular Xcode project in the simulator. But even when I run that before I run sudo ionic emulate ios, nothing is simulated. The output is below, not sure if it is the same as what I sent before. Thanks, Ben

No, ios-sim is a phonegap utility to launch the simulator from the command line

Thanks for the link! I tried to follow the Installation:
$ npm install ios-sim -g
$ curl -L https://github.com/phonegap/ios-sim/zipball/3.1.1 -o ios-sim-3.1.1.zip
$ unzip ios-sim-3.1.1.zip
$ rake install prefix=/usr/local/
rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb)

Hmm, I just ran sudo npm install ios-sim -g on my mac and it installed with out a problem.

So a few things to ask first. Do you have the xcode command line tool installed? You should be able to install it from Preferenced>Downloads.

Not sure what else could be causing the issues though.

Yep.

Can you try this?

$ DevToolsSecurity -enable

or

$ sudo DevToolsSecurity -enable

Seems to be a permissions issues, but Iā€™m not really sure why

Do you have rvm installed?

Also, can you run rake --help?

Iā€™m trying to figure out if you can access rake and ruby utils or its failing to have permissions to access those directories.

Iā€™m really excited to get started on this app. Any chance I can just stop by the office tomorrow with my laptop? Thanks, Ben

Nevermind, I am able to run it okay if I emulate the project from Xcode! Thanks for all your help with the previous issues.

raboine ā€“ are there any particular steps u can share about how you were able to get it working via running xCode first. I am unable to replicate this general step of running the Simulator through xCode first. Thanks. -Albert

I donā€™t recall because I never got it to work in command line, and it just worked when I tried it in xCode. I now use the browser testing with ā€œionic serveā€ then when Iā€™m doing my final testing I use Ionic View on the actual device. Hope this helps!

I know itā€™s an old issue, but itā€™s still ranking high on google.

TLDR: Run the following:

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/

If youā€™ve used sudo to install npm youā€™ll run into this problem. Hereā€™s the issue from github: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/194
