Ionic Framework ionic-v3

Hi,

Each time I remove and add the iOS platform again, my project contains thenin Xcode “NSMainNibFile~ipad” as main interface, which gonna break my app like following if I want to start it:

2016-10-14 14:01:37.917 MyApp[5483:141745] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception ‘NSInternalInconsistencyException’, reason: ‘Could not load NIB in bundle: ‘NSBundle </Users/me/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/E2DC-9DCC/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/DE511581/Myapp.app> (loaded)’ with name ‘NSMainNibFile~ipad’’

So I know the fix, I just have to empty manually the field “Main interface” of my project in Xcode.

But anyone got that problem too? Or any idea where that comes from?

Yes I have it too, i guess a bug in the latest ionic. And thanks for the fix!

I have the same problem, but only when I use the cordova-custom-config plugin.

Same problem with latest Ionic and cordova-custom-config plugin

Look like that stuff is solved with cordova@7.0.0 or cordova-ios@4.4.0. Now, when I remove my platform and add it again, I don’t have to manually empty “Main interface” again
