cocoa Pod svn issue - objective-c

I have integrated cocoa pod in my project. The workspace was successfully created and all is fine. After that I committed the same to SVN. Now when someone else takes a checkout, they get the follwing error.
diff: /<path to cocoa pod>/Pods/../Podfile.lock: No such file or directory
diff: /<path to cocoa pod>/Pods/Manifest.lock: No such file or directory
error: The sandbox is not in sync with the Podfile.lock. Run 'pod install' or update your Cocoa Pods installation.
Also the workspace is also not created.

I can suggest you little workaround here.
Before initial commit to SVN, ignore "Pods" folder in project files.
Create new project
terminal : pod init
Add your dependencies to podfile
terminal : pod install
terminal : svn propset svn:ignore Pods .
// ignores Pods folder under project folder.
Do your first commit to SVN
terminal : svn commit -m "FIRST COMMIT"
When others checkout project from SVN, they need to pod install once and ignore "Pods" folder.

Xcode builds successfully a corrupted archive, not showing in organizer, as soon as cocoapods installs react-native-mapbox-gl from Podfile

The problem seems not new, as here, but the solutions proposed didn't work.
I tried also several other approaches to understand what's going on (see here).
To replicate, this is the process:
I have a working iOS App written in Swift.
I follow the description to integrate this app with Native React this procedure
I add to the package.json the following dependencies, and run yarn install:
"#react-native-mapbox-gl/maps":"^8.1.0-rc.9",
"prop-types": "^15.6.2",
I run pod install --repo-update and Archive on Xcode.
OUTPUT: At this point the organizer displays my Archive.
I implement a basic view on mapbox following this procedure
I add to the Podfile requiring use_framework!, as described here or after use_framework!, no difference in the result after I hit pod install --repo-update.
I hit Archive on Xcode.
OUTPUT: the archive is generated successfully, but doesn't show up on the organizer. If I try to open it, the archive is corrupted.
If I remove the pod file of mapbox and I Archive the project after hitting pod install --repo-update, the archive works and shows up in the organizer. Here the same description.
The project runs both as debug and release on a real iPhone 8. Mapbox works well. However, it doesn't work on simulator, nor archive. I can leave with the former, but I can't push on App store because of the latter.
I would not give up as Mapbox is very nice and provides lots of features. What could it be?
SOLUTION :
sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods -v 1.9.3
rm Podfile.lock
rm -rf Pods
pod install
LAST MESSAGES :
Same here. Impossible to find any solution.
Xcode is building a incomplete archive file. (By incomplete, I mean that in the archive package, some files are missing, like info.plist)
If this can help, I'm using MapboxGL too.
Edit :
Found this https://github.com/react-native-mapbox-gl/maps/issues/1097#issuecomment-725689831
Edit 2:
This link was the solution !
I got the exact same problem with :
#react-native-mapbox-gl/maps": "8.1.0"
COCOAPODS: 1.10.1
Xcode 12.4
The archive was corrupted (missing parts like the plist)
The trick for me was to remove the copy dsym build phase of the #react-native-mapbox-gl-mapbox-static pod
This phase was causing build failure with some config and malformed archive with others, I don't really get the crux of the problem but may be it can help some of you...
It looks like mapbox issue. I had the same issue and instead of downgrading the cocoapods I used this solution:
Edit your package.json, set:
"#react-native-mapbox-gl/maps": "^8.2.0-beta1",
2. Run yarn install or npm install.
3. Put the code into your ios/Podfile between pre_install do |installer| and end:
$RNMBGL.pre_install(installer)
And between post_install do |installer| and end:
$RNMBGL.post_install(installer)
Run cd ios && pod install
After these steps I was able to generate to archive.

Incorrect path for Pods-testAppTests/Pods-testAppTests.debug.xcconfig: unable to open file

So I recently uploaded my react-native project on GitHub, then cloned it back to see how it will build(did it for first time... yeah). And on react-native run-ios I got a repetitive error: "react-native-app/ios/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-testAppTests/Pods-testAppTests.debug.xcconfig: unable to open file (in target "testAppTests" in project "testApp") (in target 'testAppTests' from project 'testApp')
I found a solution, where this:
cd ios
pod deintegrate
pod install
helped me as the project then built and ran correctly.
So my question is, how to upload it to GitHub in a way so it builds always correctly after cloning it?
Update
Checking and editing .gitignore solved this problem.
Maybe this is linked to files which have been added/committed, while they should have been ignored, private and local only (not uploaded to GitHub)
Check your .gitignore: here is one for ReactNative, as explained in "Creating a .gitignore for a Clean React Repository", blog post written by Parker Johansen.
Then, assuming you don't have any pending changes/work in progress, you can, as explained here, apply your new .gitignore to your existing repository:
cd /path/to/local/cloned/repo
# create your .gitignore
git rm -r --cached .
git add .
git commit -m ".gitignore is now working"
git push
Finally, clone it again, and see if it compiles better.
The OP adds in the comments:
I found that folder 'Pods' doesn't exist on GitHub, that's why this error occurs, how can I add it to my /ios folder on Github correctly
I advise to check if there is a .gitignore rule which would ignore said folder:
git check-ignore -v Pods/aFile_inside_Pods

AppCenter doesn't seem to run pod install despite existence of Podfile

I've got a react-native app that builds on AppCenter. I have a Podfile in my /ios directory, and locally, I can run pod install. The AppCenter documentation says that "App Center scans the selected branch and if it finds a Podfile, it will automatically do a pod install step at the beginning of every build. This will ensure that all dependencies are installed.", but as far as I can tell, it's not running pod install for my build and the build fails for that reason.
Tried adding pod install to a pre-build script, in which case the build succeeds.
Make sure the Cocoapods version running on the build agent matches the one on your podfile.lock.
You can add a post clone script like this on your ios/ folder:
appcenter-post-clone.sh This will automatically install the matching cocoapods version.
Push that file to your repo, then make sure you open the build configuration and hit Save and Build.
It appears that in addition to having a Podfile, you must NOT have a ios/Pods folder present. In my case, I also had to explicitly add that folder to my .gitignore

cocoapod : pod setup failed with fatal error

I successfully installed cocoapod by using "gem install cocoapods". After that trying to set up pod by using "pod setup", but gives fatal error.
sh-3.2# pod setup
Setting up CocoaPods master repo
[!] Pod::Executable clone 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' master
Cloning into 'master'...
error: transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining while accessing https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
fatal: HTTP request failed
please help me to solve this..
This issue appears to be just a temporary network issue. Try to verify if you can clone the https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs repo in a folder manually.
1 - first install git (command line tool for mac)
link to download is : http://git-scm.com/download/mac
2 - then open commind line (or terminal) and type
$ sudo gem install cocoapods (you need to wait here , be patient)
3 - now you can shoot the command "pod --version" to check the version of the pod you just installed.
4 - Write again on terminal $ pod search libpusher (just an example of a library, you can type any library name here instead of 'libpusher' ).
5- let it be complete , it may take some time.
6- then most imp step , create the pod file , (name can be 'podfile') in your project directory and add it to your project in Xcode.
7 - Now Here the secret is : you need to provide the path to this pod file too here , so type command:
cd /Rakesh/vidyo_demo/vidyo_phonegap/ios (eg.)
after cd command rest is the path of the pod file directory.
8- and now when you will type 'pod install ' command in terminal.
and all libraries (which are written in podfile) will get installed on your project path. just then open the project which now has a workspace file. like demo.xcworkspace (open it)
9- here is the format of pod file:
platform :ios, '7.0'
pod 'libPusher', '~> 1.4'
This issue has been already reported to cocoapods.
Ok, after a few hours lost, it seems if my project path contains
single quotes or spaces, things fail. Sigh.

'pod install' doesn't update an existing pod

I am trying to update my pod using pod install and finding that it doesn't update properly unless I delete the original pod.
Is there some extra step required or is there a common mistake that makes updates fail?
I'm not sure from which version, but if you update your cocoapods installation to the latest version, you'll find two new commands to help with this.
pod outdated
This will list all pods that have updates available.
pod update
This will update the pods listed in the previous command
You can add the verbose tag and see if there is an error showing up during the update.
pod install --verbose
Using --verbose is the best way to find out what is going on. Maybe there is a problem with the repo it is trying to update from. Hard to say.
I think reader of this Question must understand difference between
pod install vs. pod update
Many people starting with CocoaPods seems to think that pod install is only used the first time you setup a project using CocoaPods and pod update is used afterwards. But that's not the case at all.
Use pod install to install new pods in your project. Even if you already have a Podfile and ran pod install before; so even if you are just adding/removing pods to a project already using CocoaPods.
Use pod update [PODNAME] only when you want to update specific pod to a newer version.
Use pod update only when you want to update every pod to a newer available version.
Every time the pod install command is run — and downloads and install new pods — it writes the version it has installed, for each pods, in the Podfile.lock file. This file keeps track of the installed version of each pod and locks those versions.
When you run pod install, it only resolves dependencies for pods that are not already listed in the Podfile.lock.
For pods listed in the Podfile.lock, it downloads the explicit version listed in the Podfile.lock without trying to check if a newer version is available
For pods not listed in the Podfile.lock yet, it searches for the version that matches what is described in the Podfile (like in pod 'MyPod', '~>1.2')
If your project is configured correctly, you should be able to delete the entire Pods directory and run pod install. I find that this is sometimes the best solution when having issues with pods not being installed properly.
Note: If you begin getting errors such as this when you build:
diff: /../Podfile.lock: No such file or directory
diff: /Manifest.lock: No such file or directory
error: The sandbox is not in sync with the Podfile.lock. Run 'pod install' or update your CocoaPods installation.
... you may need to close and reopen the project in Xcode.
Warning: make sure all the files in your Pods directory are going to be recreated before deleting the Pods directory. (I.e. make sure you didn't manually modify or add files to the Pods directory.)
