XCode 6 Compile error (Command /Developer/usr/bin/ibtool failed with exit code 255 )

Hey Guys, I'm trying to get up and running with swift and am running into an issue when I try to build a blank app. Below is the error that I am seeing. Also, I just want to let you know that I downloaded a copy of xcode 6 yesterday and updated my system so I am not sure why I am getting this error.

try switching to a different simulator. if that doesnt work quit the simulator and try running it again. try restarting xcode. xcode 6 is not very stable right now. I have had a lot of issues with the simulator.

Thank you for responding to my forum post. When I get home I'll try restarting xcode and see if that will fix my issue.

Thank Stone that worked for me.

Ha.... I still get this sometimes in Xcode 8...
