Apple Mach-O Linker Error when compiling for device

I’ve just upgraded to xcode 4.0 and I can no longer deploy to iPhone, I get a Apple Mach-O Linker Error, it still works for the simulator though.

Here is permanent solution.Generally overwriting project may cause this prolems.Try this method.

-UPDATE – Clang error – Mach-O Linker error

In some case error log window displaying .xctest error, to fix it

-> Select your project

-> Beside this(just before General tab) select your projectTest file from dropdown

-> There is one option (like ProjNameTests)

-> In Host Application, select your project from dropdown only if it show custom

DONE!
