XCode 15.4 Deployment

[Jacek_ADC]

Hello

Anyone here, which used the guide for the xcode installation from:

Deploying Xcode on managed devices (jamf.com)

everything works for me til i start to install it via self service. After downloading the pkg

i receive in my log:

no app at /Applications/Xcode.app, exiting

I am using the script from:

Configure Xcode post installation script with SDK download for Xcode 14 and 15 (github.com)

#!/bin/sh

export PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

xcodePath="/Applications/Xcode.app"

if [ ! -e "$xcodePath" ]; then
    echo "no app at $xcodePath, exiting..."
    exit 1
fi

# select Xcode
xcode-select -s "$xcodePath"

# accept license
xcodebuild -license accept

# install additional components
xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch

# add everyone (every local account) to developer group
dseditgroup -o edit -a everyone -t group _developer

# enable dev tools security
DevToolsSecurity -enable

# download platform SDK

# all available platforms
# xcodebuild -downloadAllPlatforms

# update previously downloaded platforms
# xcodebuild -downloadAllPreviouslySelectedPlatforms

# download individual platforms (repeat for each)
# options are: watchOS, tvOS, and (Xcode 15+) iOS, and xrOS
#xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS
#xcodebuild -downloadPlatform watchOS

I tried to comment a few things in the script:

xcodePath="/Applications/Xcode.app"

#if [ ! -e "$xcodePath" ]; then
#   echo "no app at $xcodePath, exiting..."
#    exit 1
#fi

# select Xcode
xcode-select -s "$xcodePath"

# accept license
xcodebuild -license accept

# install additional components
xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch

# add everyone (every local account) to developer group
dseditgroup -o edit -a everyone -t group _developer

# enable dev tools security
DevToolsSecurity -enable

the only difference is, that the pkg is in the application folder.

Result from policy is:

Can you not use ABM / App Store to deploy Xcode ?

Check your script is set to run AFTER the pkg install

hello

thank you for your answer. The last time (maybe one year ago) when i tried to run it via appstore/abm it was running multiple hours. This was the reason i do not tested it now. 

Script is set to run after in the policy and in the script settings as well.

[jamf-42]

It's a large download... so it can take a while.. depending on connection etc. Caching servers can help here if users are office bound. 

Xcode.app is a directory.. try:  ! -d 

[Jacek_ADC]

#if [ ! -d "$xcodePath" ]; then
#   echo "no app at $xcodePath, exiting..."
#    exit 1
#fi

do you mean this one?

[jamf-42]

yup.. also add:

set -x 

after the shebang.. so you get all the output while testing.

#!/bin/sh

set -x

looking again..have you commented out the if statement?

[Jacek_ADC]

thx i forgot completely about the set -x.

Yep, i commented out now the if statement and will try with set -x

in the meantime i tried also via appstore and are running in an error after dont know how much minutes

It looks to me like you might have a corrupt pkg. I would redownload Xcode and try with a new package.   

[Jacek_ADC]

Thank you for your help guys.
The issue was using the wrong xcode version for the latest macos build.

So after reset the macbook to factory, creating a new pkg everything is working flawless.
