On running brew install mongodb, I get the following output:
Updating Homebrew...
mongodb: A full installation of Xcode.app 8.3.2 is required to compile this software.
Installing just the Command Line Tools is not sufficient.
Xcode can be installed from the App Store.
Error: An unsatisfied requirement failed this build.
My system is running on OSX El Capitan version 10.11.6.
Is there anyway to install mongodb without upgrading it to Mac OS Sierra and Xcode 8.3.3?
I am running OSX 10.11.6, unable to update to 10.12 because my machine is older (mid-2009 Macbook Pro). While trying to install MongoDB I ran into the error:
`mongodb: A full installation of Xcode.app 8.3.2 is required to compile
this software.
Installing just the Command Line Tools is not sufficient.
Xcode can be installed from the App Store.
Error: An unsatisfied requirement failed this build.`
I presently have XCode 8.0, which took some other kind of run-around to get anyway. So I needed a compatible MongoDB build. 3.0.6 is compatible.
To install through the command line with Homebrew:
`user$ brew search mongodb`
And receive this answer:
`==> Searching local taps...
mongodb mongodb#3.0 mongodb#3.2
mongodb#3.4 percona-server-mongodb`
Now:
`$ brew install mongodb#3.0`
OK, next I have a note to myself about creating these next directories in my root directory, but I did it in my current User (which has administrative access on the OS). These commands need to be precise and in this order:
`$ sudo mkdir -p /data/db`
(enter your OSX User password when prompted)
`$ sudo chown -R $USER /data/db`
`$ sudo chmod go+w /data/db`
This next one came from another S.O. answer: How to install earlier version of mongodb with homebrew?
`$ brew link --force mongodb#3.0`
This next command is provided after successful completion of the --force command:
`$ echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/mongodb#3.0/bin:$PATH"' >>
~/.bash_profile`
Now, you can run your Mongo as a Daemon with:
`$ mongod`
It should now be listening on Port 27017, and in another terminal tab you can run $ mongo and use this tab to enter your Mongo queries and commands. Running it in another tab is important; allowing $ mongod to sit untouched and monitor traffic is necessary.
Edited: To update brew versions <> command per #user122121 comment and updated formatting.
Is there anyway to install mongodb without upgrading it to Mac OS Sierra and Xcode 8.3.3?
Unfortunately in order to install Xcode 8.3+ you are required to be on MacOS Sierra 10.12. See
Xcode compatibility requirements in Apple App Store for more information.
An alternative way is to download MongoDB Community edition through MongoDB Download Center, and then follow the Install MongoDB Community Edition on MacOS instruction.
You can download mongodb-app from github:
https://github.com/gcollazo/mongodbapp
I was able to successfully run mongodb4 with it on my machine, after brew installing failed.

I just updated XCode and the command line tools to 11.4. Now when I run svn it says "svn: error: The subversion command line tools are no longer provided by Xcode". The release notes say "Command line tool support for Subversion — including svn, git-svn, and related commands is no longer provided by Xcode. If you need Subversion or related command line tools the you need to install the Command Line Tools package by running xcode-select --install." I seem to be in a loop here, as the tools are installed. Has anyone experienced this problem and resolved it?
macOS Catalina
I had the same issue after upgrading to Catalina 10.15. It's clearly mentioned in the Apple website that SVN is deprecated in Xcode 11:
You can find it here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos_release_notes/macos_catalina_10_15_release_notes
Command line tool support for Subversion — including svn, git-svn, and related commands — is no longer provided by Xcode.
The solution is to install the standalone Command Line Tools package instead:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
followed by:
sudo xcode-select --install
This will replace the bundled Command Line Tools with the standalone package.
If it doesn't work for you then try to install it with brew.
brew install svn
brew is a package manager for MacOS so if you don't have it installed then you can simply install it: https://brew.sh/
macOS Big Sur
I faced the same issue Today (16th November 2020) after upgrading to MacOS Big Sur. I was able to fix it by installing the SVN again using brew install svn command.
If you faced permission errors after running above command, you can fix it by running following command.
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/*
brew install svn
in Xcode 11.4. Svn has been removed.
I had same issue from Netbeans and have done the following from command line and now all fine
sudo xcode-select --install
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
brew install svn
Coming from a FreeBSD background we elected to install SVN via MacPorts which is akin to FreeBSD Ports. So basically one would first need to install MacPorts and then install SVN as follows:
sudo port install subversion
Some details -
Install MacPorts: https://www.macports.org/install.php
Install SVN: https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/Subversion
It took less than five(5) minutes and works well for us.
I switched to SVNKIT which works very well for my purposes. Since I'm doing a lot of Java development is no drawback for me that SVNKIT is based on Java.
The big advantage is that SVNKIT will still work even if Apple throws SVN out completely.
I found svn still available on my Mac (upgraded from 10.15.x -> Big Sur, including XCode upgrade) in
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/svn
In the Apple Developers forum I read the suggestion to make an alias, which worked for me. However, considering svn is being dropped by Apple, this will probably not work on new installs, but it could be useful for those of us that just want it to work for now after upgrading.
alias svn=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/svn
Note: I found it easier to just make a symbolic link to svn:
ln -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/svn /usr/local/bin/svn
my mac os version is macOs Catalina 10.15.5,I try
sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
sudo xcode-select --install
brew install svn
but it not work.so I try to install with source code.It's work!
tar xvf subversion-1.14.0.tar.gz
cd subversion-1.14.0
./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/opt/apr --with-apr-util=/usr/local/opt/apr-util
make
now,you can find it in /usr/local/bin/
Based partly on the other answers here, I built from source with this procedure:
Download & unpack svn source tarball (NOT zip file!) from
https://subversion.apache.org/download.cgi
cd subversion-1.14.0
./get-deps (this seems to have downloaded apr and apr-util but not
built them)
cd apr
sudo mkdir /usr/local/opt
(because I did not already have such a directory on a fresh Mac)
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt/apr
make
make test
(saw lots of "OK" and "SUCCESS", plus one failure in "testsock")
sudo make install
cd ../apr-util
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt/apr-util --with-apr=/usr/local/opt/apr
cd ..
make
./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/opt/apr --with-apr-util=/usr/local/opt/apr-util --with-lz4=internal --with-utf8proc=internal
make
sudo make install
The top instructions (removing the command line tools, xcode-select --install, and brew install svn) worked for me (Monterey, 12.5.1, on an M1 pro). Thanks!
However, after I did the brew install, I had to manually remove the old svn version from /opt/local/bin before the new version would run. (discovered with $ which svn). Might be the result of migrating from the old laptop to the new one.
I'd like to install openCV to vectorize image, but there's a series error message regarding Xcode and Ruby.
First, I use terminal to install openCV, brew install opencv.
Then, I got error message indicating that the system doesn't like my ruby version.
/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/brew.rb:12:in `<main>':
Homebrew must be run under Ruby 2.3! You're running 2.0.0. (RuntimeError)
So, I want to upgrade my ruby. I followed several update strategy from this post. First ruby upgrade trial: brew link --overwrite ruby & brew unlink ruby && brew link ruby and get
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/ruby
Then second ruby upgrade trial: brew upgrade ruby and see the following error message.
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
xcode-select --install
This error message means I need to install Xcode which I already install. So, I check my Xcode status with code-select -p and get /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer which means I am fine.
I saw a comment regarding where you install python could be a big issue. Quote from the source:
If you see /usr/local/bin/python3 then you are correctly using the Homebrew version of Python. If the output is instead /usr/bin/python3 then you are incorrectly using the system version of Python.
I check which python3 and get
/Users/******/anaconda3/bin/python3
Could this be the problem? How can I change system version to local?
Let me explain this myself so people won't make the same mistakes.
When I saw the last line of the error message
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
xcode-select --install
My thought was: I already have Xcode why the system ask me to "reinstall" it. However, thanks for #SamiKuhmonen # Beartech #patrick kuang suggestion, I search a page (in Mandarin). xcode-select --install does not reinstall the whole Xcode. It means install some missing command line tools which is required by installing Ruby.
Trying to install k8s package via brew , I just got the same issue a while ago saying in the terminal :
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command
Line Tools: xcode-select --install
You need to download *.dmg file; named Command Line Tools (macOS x.x.x) for XCode N . Search on it here : https://developer.apple.com/download/more/ . You must have developer account.
Then, congrats! 🎉
update for 2019
macOS Mojave 10.14.5
Use Xcode10.2 for macOS 10.14
I had the same issue in my Macbook Pro on Sierra. Apart from updating Xcode from the App Store, I also installed the command line utilities using the xcode-select --install command.
After the update steps, brew commands started working fine. I also updating my OS during this time.
I got the same message despite having Xcode and the command line tools already being installed a long time ago and updated numerous times.
I think it is the Apple way of telling you that Xcode command line tools need to be updated, as the App Store showed me the below:
After executing the xcode-select --install command, the update disappears from the App Store, which means they are exactly the same thing.
I had the same problem. I installed 'Command Line Tools for XCode' (choose appropriate version) from https://developer.apple.com/download/more/ and restarted my terminal. Issue resolved :)
I have been trying to instal the Git on my mac, But every time I use the command $git --version.
I get the following error
xcrun: error: active developer path ("/Volumes/Xcode/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer") does not exist, use xcode-select --switch path/to/Xcode.app to specify the Xcode that you wish to use for command line developer tools (or see man xcode-select)
I have already installed the Xcode on my mac for iOS App development.
I am not sure what this error is trying to say.
My case:
I removed XCode. JetBrains integration with git - breaks. Found this error in terminal.
My soltuion:
I don't want to download XCode to restore PyCharm. So I ran:
sudo xcode-select --reset
So from discussion in the comments above, it seems the right fix here is just to run the command /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch once (i.e., run it with the full path to the executable, rather than just as xcode-select) with /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/ as the argument:
sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
After running that once, everything should work as expected from then on.
sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select --switch /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
and reboot your computer.
Try this below answer. It's worked for me.
Open your Xcode Preferences,
--> Select Locations
--> Select your specific Xcode version in Command Line Tools
It was easier for me to let Xcode pick the install location of Command Line Tools for me, instead of the other way around. After downloading the .xip file from the Apple Developer downloads page, expanding the compressed contents, and installing Xcode.App, I was able to open it using Spotlight.
And open preferences:
And select my Command Line Tools under "Locations".
You can install git via the brew package manager for Mac. I recommend installing software this way since it's a great way to manage your installed packages in one place. For example, you can do brew update to get a list of the latest package updates, or brew upgrade to upgrade all of your software installed through brew.
To install brew, open a terminal window and run:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Update your brew packages with brew update
Install git with brew install git
I had installed git, then returned to a terminal window open prior to the installation. I try running command git --version and this raised error message below. To resolve, I ran command source /etc/profile in same terminal window. BTW, terminal window is inside my Webstorm and my end goal is to git init and setup git for my new reactjs project. Happy coding!
The error:
xcrun: error: active developer path ("/Volumes/Xcode/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer") does not exist, use \`xcode-select --switch path/to/Xcode.app\` to specify the Xcode that you wish to use for command line developer tools (or see \`man xcode-select\`)
I wanted to try to update Git on my Mac OS to the latest version and it says to run the provided uninstall.sh first. I must confess that I ran the pkg before reading the "Read me". Not sure if that screwed it all up ...
Now I am not big with the terminal and found the following command to run a shell script:
$ sh uninstall
but that resulted in:
/usr/sbin/uninstall: /usr/sbin/uninstall: cannot execute binary file
where I got stuck now.
Any idea what I have to do to resolve this error?
You should run the uninstall.sh packaged with your previous distribution of Git, as explained in "Install and Update to latest version Git on Mac OSX 10.10 Yosemite":
Upgrading Git from a previous version to the latest 2.0.1
If you have previously installed Git you can upgrade to the latest version by uninstalling the previous install using the uninstall.sh file with the installation.
Go through the same process of downloading and mounting and the .dmg – then launch the Terminal.
uninstall and uninstall.sh are two different things. The former is a binary that comes with the os, the latter is a shell script that comes with the package.
Try: sh uninstall.sh instead
I am having trouble getting MacPorts to function properly. I just installed OSX Lion 10.7.3 I downloaded and installed MacPorts first, and then after reading the requirements, I downloaded Xcode4.3 from the App Store, and then installed it. I launched Xcode and it looks to be operational and functional. However when I attempted to port with MacPorts, it gave me this error message(excerpt):
Warning: xcodebuild exists but failed to execute
Warning: Xcode does not appear to be installed; most ports will likely fail to build.
I followed the advice from:
How do i install additional packages for Xcode on OSX Lion to allow MacPorts to work
and installed command_line_tools_for_xcode from the Preferences within Xcode. I closed Xcode, and again got the errors:
$ sudo port install libsocketsPassword:
Warning: xcodebuild exists but failed to execute
Warning: Xcode does not appear to be installed; most ports will likely fail to build.
---> Computing dependencies for libsockets
---> Dependencies to be installed: openssl zlib
---> Extracting zlib
Error: Couldn't determine your Xcode version (from '/usr/bin/xcodebuild -version').
Error:
Error: If you have not installed Xcode, install it now; see:
Error: http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.xcode.html
Error:

Error: The following dependencies were not installed: openssl zlib
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
I am uncertain where to go next with this. How do i trouble shoot my Xcode and MacPort interface?
In theory this should work if you have Xcode4.3 installed (in /Applications):
$ sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/
(And you've installed the optional command line tools)
Everything will start working fine after installation of "Command Line Tools for Xcode" package.
You can get it from here: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action#
Please see the MacPorts migration instructions for Xcode 4.3.
The instructions are pretty involved. You need to run xcode-select to set a new tools path, update developer_dir in macports.conf (as described by Henk Poley), re-install MacPorts (ouch), and finally uninstall and re-install all of your ports (double ouch).
Edit: libpvx still wouldn't install after the above. Two extra steps were required:
sudo ln -s /Developer /
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs /SDKs
YMMV if you have different ports installed!
Also in /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf change the line with developer_dir to point to / instead of /Developer.
After
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app
I also had to run
sudo xcodebuild -license
and accept the licence
Here is a solution that has worked for me:
Install Command Line Tools for Xcode
Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads
Help MacPorts find the right Xcode folder
sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app
Create symbolic links for clang compilers as they now live elsewhere
sudo ln -s `which clang` /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/
sudo ln -s `which clang++` /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/
Try using trunk, there's no release supporting Xcode 4.3 yet.
Setting the developer path in /opt/local/etc/macports.conf works for me,
developer_dir /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain
since most of the compilers are stored there now instead of /usr/bin under Developer.
None of this works for me. Wait for macports to release a new version that officially supports XCode 4.3+
sudo mv /usr/bin/xcodebuild /usr/bin/xcodebuild.old
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild /usr/bin/xcodebuild
Starting with Xcode 4.3, the command-line build tools are not installed by default. Launch Xcode, open the Preferences, and go to the Downloads tab. From there you should have an option to install the command-line tools.
You can also download them from the web here: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
Disclaimer: I haven't installed Xcode 4.3 yet. I have only read about it on the web.
As of 27/2/2012, the official suggestion from MacPorts seems to be to not use XCode 4.3 and instead use 4.1 through 4.2.1, which can be downloaded from Apple.
There is a bug ticket which might be useful to follow the evolution of this.
Incidentally, and as reported in my comment #11 in that bug report, I am able to build ports without warnings by using the 2 most sane-looking suggestions found in this question: sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer and changing developer_dir in /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain
I have macports installed without admin/root privileges, so I was unable to test the xcode-select answers. However, I observed that Pall Melsted's answer worked, but not initially. What I found out was that I had not accepted the Xcode 4.5 license agreement!
If you have just installed Xcode for the purposes of macports, and you haven't accepted the Xcode license yet, you might get the error presented by the original post. When I checked my Xcode version using /usr/bin/xcodebuild -version, I was given the prompt to read and accept the license. After doing so, and after having made the changes suggested by Pall to the macports.conf developer_dir, it all works now.
As alternative: you can make downgrade of Xcode to 4.2.1 version. DMG of Xcode 4.2.1 placed here: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
After this MacPorts became works fine for me.
This is fixed in MacPorts 2.0.4.
To upgrade:
Download MacPorts 2.0.4 from the install site or run sudo port selfupdate.
Run the MacPorts migration described here to reinstall all ports. This is painful but required to get back to a working state.
You should definitely run sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app like everyone here says, that'll fix many problems, but certainly not all.
Afaik, all the remaining problems exist within the configuration information for various packages. You might simply reinstall MacPorts as described in the migration instructions, but I found another solution.
You should begin finding all effected port files using commands like grep /Developer/ ..., after executing sudo bash and cd /opt/local naturally.
You should identify all effected ports by using port provides ..., which I piped through sed and sort | uniq. You could simply reinstall all these ports using either port -n upgrade --force ... or separate port uninstall ... and port install ... commands.
I recommend using one large port -n upgrade --force ... command to avoid duplicate rebuilds of dependencies, using the separate uninstall and install commands afterwards.
There are of course various ports for which /Developer exists only inside text config files, meaning you can fix them manually with sed -i -e 's/\/Developer//g' ..., but you cannot do so with binaries obviously.
I'm afraid you must at minimum rebuild all your Python and Perl installations, making this upgrade an ideal time to clean out packages that depend upon older versions, ala python26 and perl5.8.
There are several technically effected ports I decided against rebuilding like fuse4x-kext, who contained /Developer inside Library/Extensions/fuse4x.kext/Contents/MacOS/fuse4x but hasn't prevented sshfs from working correctly.
I had initially installed xcode 3.2.2, after which I installed 4.3. When I ran the xcode-select, I still got the same error about no xcode project in /Applications. I then dug into the /usr/bin/xcodebuild script and found out that this was working correctly, and another instance of xcodebuild (the one installed with xcode 4.3, not the one in /usr/bin) was being run and returning the error:
xcodebuild: error: The directory /Applications does not contain an Xcode project.
It seems the /usr/bin/xcode-select does not work for xcode 4.3, (it's compiled so you can't really see why it's not working). Strings doesn't give any clues. Good thing osx has strace.. oh wait.
Anyways, the best I could do was modify /opt/local/etc/macports.conf
and uncomment the line containing the path to the xcode installation. That seems to fix my problem for the most part.
