Incorrect path for Pods.debug.xcconfig in Xcode?

I had the same problem in Xcode 6.1.1. I did the following to solve it:

Set the configuration file setting* "None" for the Pods related target. Close the .xcworkspace. run pod install again now open and build your .xcworkspace

*The configuration file setting is found by selecting the project (not the target) and then the Info tab.

If your path to pods in error is wrong try this:

use pod deintegrate

delete all pod remains files - Podfile.lock, Pods, .xcworkspace

open .xcodeproj

remove Pods project on left side

try pod install

I had the same problem with Xcode 11 but I just updated CocoaPods and it worked.

Update CocoaPods to latest version with sudo gem install cocoapods Run pod install again

I had the same error while trying to build my project for the first time. This is how I resolved it:

pod deintegrate

sudo gem install cocoapods-clean

pod clean

Open the project and delete the “Pods” folder that should be red.

pod setup

pod install

Reopen and build the project, I think it's good to go!

I faced this issue when I upgraded/downgraded cocoapods between 1.6.x and 1.5.x. The following step fixed this error

1, go to project info tab

2, just under Deployment target, there is configurations field. change your configuration. In my case, there are 2 options

/Users/user/GitHub/xxxxxx/Pods/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods/Pods.debug.xcconfig

/Users/user/GitHub/xxxxxx/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods/Pods.debug.xcconfig

3, clean and build again.

1- Remove your Pods folder Podfile.lock and xcworkspace files root in your project.

2- Open .xcodeproj

3- Go to Build Settings and under Build Options search Always Embed Swift Standard Libraries

4- Update its value with $(inherited)

5- Close project and pod install again

There has been an update to cocoa pods that is causing this problem. Please refer to the cocoa pods release notes :

Change shell script relative paths to use ${PODS_ROOT} instead of ${SRCROOT}/Pods. Whirlwind #7878

This was done in version 1.6.0.beta.1 (2018-08-16) Release notes are here: cocoapods release notes

I had the same error and I fixed in following way

1 - Goto your projected setting by blue icon of your project from left pan 2 - Select your project under the project 3 - Select Info window 4 - Check IOS deployement target. This target should be same as you set in general settings of your project (Pic 2).

I got the same situation in Xcode 10.1. This is what works for me.

Open .xcworkspace Go into your folder(by default it's blue), delete the Pods folder (by default it's yellow) In Terminal.app, run pod install again Then I'm able to CMD + R to run the simulator

A few things worth trying:

As Keith mentioned above, you definitely want to exclude Pods from synx.

You almost certainly do not want to override the PODS_ROOT build setting.

I've seen similar errors to yours in a project with multiple targets. Make sure that your Podfile includes a link_with setting that specifies all your app targets.

If you have at least one test target, consider using your Podfile to explicitly import all your app pods to both your application and test targets.

I've not too much experience using a custom xcconfig with CocoaPods, but you might first try removing your xcconfig and allowing CocoaPods to generate its own first.

Close project Do pod deintegrate Delete - Podfile.lock, Pods,.xcworkspace in project directory Do sudo gem install cocoapods Do pod install

Go to project directory right click on

project.xcodeproj -> show package contents -> open project.pbxproj

Find

"Pods/Target Support Files/

and replace with

"Target Support Files/

This solution will work at any cost!

Try deleting the debug.xcconfig file and run pod install again. It solved my issue

In my case, I deleted my Podfile, Podfile.lock. Run pod init, then copy all pods to new Podfile, then run pod install again and it's worked. I think it's happened for the differences from folder paths in the old project (for me, I cloned another project from Git repo).

For me, changing Build system to Legacy in File -> workspace settings did the trick

For me, this caused after I updated cocoapods. So, I downgraded and the build worked again.

To downgrade, first list of all your versions:

sudo gem list cocoapods

Then specify the you want to delete (for me was 1.8.4):

sudo gem uninstall cocoapods -v 1.8.4

Then, with 1.5.3 worked!

This is what worked for me !

I use always Bundler to manage ruby dependencies, then in all my iOS projects i have Gemfile that look like this !

source "https://rubygems.org"

gem "cocoapods"
gem "fastlane"
gem "jazzy"

gem 'xcodeproj', :git => 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Xcodeproj.git'
gem 'fastlane-plugin-teams', :git => "https://github.com/mbogh/fastlane-plugin-teams"

plugins_path = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'fastlane', 'Pluginfile')
eval_gemfile(plugins_path) if File.exist?(plugins_path)

i just run the following, i advice you using alias for this :

## Alias to add in zshrc or bashrc

# bundle install
bdli() {
  bundle install $@;
}

piu() {
  kill $(ps aux | grep 'Xcode' | awk '{print $2}');
  pod deintegrate;
  pod repo update;
  pod install;
  pod update;
  open -a Xcode *.xcworkspace;
}

then simply run :

bdli && piu

It will do everything for you :)

PS : To install Bundler go here -> Bundler

pod reintegrate 
pod install

edit the .xcodeproj/project.pbxproj file and change the PBXGroup "path = Pods" to "name = Pods"
