Some tricks to avoid some disk space cleaning : When this error happens, dmgs are kept in /Library/Developper/CoreSimulator/Cryptex/Images/Inbox/{UUID}.dmg I had several 7GB files like this, so you can just keep one. Then here is one way for manual install : Stop XCode sudo mv /Library/Developper/CoreSimulator/Cryptex/Images/Inbox/{UUID}.dmg ~ sudo chown $USER:staff ~/{UUID}.dmg open ~/{UUID}.dmg # manual copy "/Volumes/iOS 17.0 21A328 Simulator" sudo cp -a "/Volumes/iOS * Simulator/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles" /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/ Make sure you end up with "/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 17.0.simruntimes/"... You will see the iOS env works when you start XCode again.

Ventura 13.4.1 / Xcode 14.3.1 Not sure it's the same problem. I could not use xcodebuild on a NFS mount via mount cmdline / fstab. (error : xxx.xcodeproj not found) But xcodebuild on a NFS share project mounted via Finder works... Go figure. Very helpful to be able to build on network share. The swift project we have takes so much time to build because of the swift compiling, I don't see NFS much of a penalty here.
