objective c - iOS - "UIViewController from storyboard "Main", but didn't get a UITableView

Question

I have an UIViewController which has UITableView in it. Everything works fine. In "didSelectRowAtIndexPath" methos I want to activate a "show" segue to UIViewController. I set it in Storyboard, created its ViewController class etc.

When I choose the cell, I get an error saying:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: '-[UITableViewController loadView] instantiated view controller with identifier "UIViewController-ndM-tm-7SM" from storyboard "Main", but didn't get a UITableView.'

Interestingly, I found that although I put a ViewController to the storyboard, it's changing to Table View Controller by itself. It's picture:

Tis is not initial situation, at first i checked the same place and there were only ViewController. Probably this is the problem.

I looked the same question asked before but they are different. My root view controller is not table view controller, it's view controller including table view.

Anyway, what should i do to handle this? I use prepareForSegue method either and it seems that there's nothing wrong about it.

Thanks!

You definately can create a segue from a VC to another VC, and call it from didSelectRowAtIndexpath

I've tried to create a segue from the rootViewController (not the cell) to the detailViewController, it works fine.

First, make sure you have connected the dataSource and delegate in storyboard.

Then connect the segue,

Then in your didSelectRowAtIndexPath method:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"show" sender:[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]];
}

And this should be working.
