Apple Mach-O Linker Error, after changing project name

I'm making an app in Xcode 6.1.1, and just changed the name of the app, and afterwards I'm getting this "Apple Mach-O Linker Error" build failed error. It says "ld: file not found:", probably because it can't find the placement of some file with the new name.. Any suggestions?

ld: file not found: /Users/rb/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Which_Club-gkgjdxflldelikaopinkdoskkers/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/WhichClubToUse.app/WhichClubToUse clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

"Which_club" is the new name of the project, and "WhichClubToUse" is the old name..

I remember having the same error but I don't know what exactly I had to do - maybe try to clean the project once? - borchero
And how do you clean it? (Noob here) - Bidstrup
Go to -> Product -> Clean or use cmd + alt + K - borchero
hmm that didnt work, just got the same error message again :-( - Bidstrup
For me this problem was not reliably reproducible. It would occur with only one of my test targets, about 75% of the time. The accepted answer does seem to fix it though. - Max
