Xcode always build on Xcode 7.0 inspite of mentioning xcode version in config.yml. Tried both CircleCI 1.0 & 2.0. Select Xcode version console: xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode-7.0.app && xcodebuild -version Xcode 7.0 Build version 7A220 As a result of this, swift syntax fails on build and test.

xcode build shows swift 2 error like “_boolean condition requires ‘where’ to separate it from variable binding_”. I am using swift 4 and have mentioned xcode version as “9.0”. Please find the config file in the above [post 1](https://discuss.circleci.com/t/xcode-always-builds-on-7-0/21035?u=itechroof). ---

Apologies, I replied initially with a grumpy message, having thought you’d not followed my posting suggestions again. Thank you for repairing the formatting - got there eventually! It seems your core issue is the error message you have now referred to - have you [searched for that on the web](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=xcode+boolean+condition+requires+where+to+separate+it+from+variable+binding)? It strikes me as something that would be on Stack Overflow. ---

As I mentioned earlier, this is swift 2 error shown in old version of xcode. As I am using swift 4 and mentioning to use latest version of xcode, this error is not expected. So I feel building is done in older version of xcode inspite of mentioning version as xcode 9. ---

Can you run a `--version` switch on a binary to see if your theory is correct? You can get an SSH session to do so. ---

On connecting SSH, I could see it uses xcode 7.0 And I m not finding xcode 9.0 available on the build machine. Please find list of application available below: ![29%20PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/circleci/original/3X/e/8/e8bb070d6263d0be3b230c916aa6b477d1d7813e.png) ---

Is your config named .circleci/config.yml? What do you get from this command? ```auto ls -la .circleci/config.yml ``` ---

Hello, I am facing exactly the same problem. Here is my config file ```auto # .circleci/config.yml version: 2 jobs: build: docker: - image: circleci/ruby:2.4.1 macos: xcode: "9.2.0" environment: FL_OUTPUT_DIR: output shell: /bin/bash --login -o pipefail steps: - checkout - run: bundle install - run: name: Fastlane command: bundle exec fastlane scan environment: SCAN_DEVICE: iPhone 6 SCAN_SCHEME: Heer 2 ``` I also connected to the container with ssh, the xCode versions installed are going only to 8.3. I also checked that ls -la .circleci/config.yml is showing me my config.yml file. Does anyone have an idea of what the problem could be? Thanks ---
