After building an app, when I am trying to open it through Finder I get the message "You cannot open the application because it maybe damaged or incomplete".

It is odd as a couple of days before I could open it from the Finder, and I did not make any change in it.

You're sure it was from the Finder and not through the "Run" button in Xcode? Have you verified that it's a release build and not a debug build?


Have you used "Show Package Contents" to look at the application bundle to make sure there's an executable file in the right location? Have you compared the bundle structure of your app to that of others noticed any differences?

Have you perhaps installed a system update in recent days? If your app is ZeroLinked, you're simply lucky if you can launch it from Finder, and since a system update changes the system libraries and frameworks, ZeroLinked apps need to be rebuilt (that's also why you can't move a ZeroLinked app between different Macs).
