Xcode 26.1.1 React Native build fails: “Could not delete ios/build” & “Operation not permitted”
I’m building a React Native 0.72.10 iOS app and hitting build errors. Environment: macOS: Apple M4, Sequoia 15.7.2 Xcode: 26.1.1 React Native: 0.72.10 Errors: Could not delete /Users/.../ios/build because it was not created by the build system Unable to write file '/Users/.../ios/build/Pods.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/...': Operation not permitted (Multiple Pods / React Native framework headers affected) What I’ve tried: bash rm -rf ios/build rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData xattr -w com.apple.xcode.CreatedByBuildSystem true ios/build pod deintegrate && pod install sudo chown -R $(whoami) ios/build Observations: ios/build is recreated automatically. Some files have com.apple.xcode.CreatedByBuildSystem: true. 3.Xcode have Full disk access authorisation. Why does Xcode fail to delete / write to ios/build even though it’s recreated automatically by the build system? Is this caused by Xcode itself, macOS permissions? Any recommended fix or workaround for these “Operation not permitted” errors?
