I am not sure how you are googling, but I found a solution as the first hit. I always do full phrase searches on error messges for best results. See this: http://lists.apple.com/archives/cocoa-dev/2012/Jun/msg00382.html as it has the exact same problem, with solution. Use that info.plist as a sample and see if you have better success.
