I had searched and found others having the same problem and their solutions (thanks to all!!).
Here's MY solution.
Note: the 'copystrings' command file requires RUBY, which was coded to be found at: /usr/bin/ruby.
I had toyed with ruby1.9 and had moved the executables (see steps below):
=============================
1) copystrings doesn't like the tchrc-shell (my preferred shell):
[/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources]./copystrings
./copystrings: Command not found.
2) Changing to bash shell:
[/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources]bash
Hello Ric!
3) Try to launch again:
$/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources:./copystrings
bash: ./copystrings: /usr/bin/ruby: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
Ah hah! ... missing ruby!!!
4) Checking for ruby:
[/Users/Ric]ls /usr/bin/ruby
ls: /usr/bin/ruby: No such file or directory
4a)
[/usr/bin]ls ruby*
ruby1.8.6@ <-- I had changed its name so I can work with ruby 1.9
4b) Checking ACTIVE ruby:
[/Users/Ric]which ruby
/usr/local/bin/ruby <--- !!
5) Checking ruby version:
[/Users/Ric]ruby --version
ruby 1.9.0 (2008-06-20 revision 17482) [i686-darwin9.5.0]
6) Decided to use the safer Ruby version 1.8.6:
So... I edited the copystrings file (after making a backup!) via TextMate:
[/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources]mate copystrings
..
#!/usr/bin/ruby1.8.6 <-- 'ruby' changed this symbolic pointer.
#
# copystrings [options] SRCFILE ... DSTDIR
#
# Copyright (c) 2008 Apple Inc.
# All rights reserved.
..
7) Rebuilt the project... SUCCESS!!!
Ric.
