In my Podfile, I have this: platform :ios, '10.1' And I have tried also with 10.0 and 9.0.

I have run: pod install npx pod install pod install --repo-update and pod update Firebase/core.

When running pod update Firebase/core I got this error: [!] No `Podfile.lock' found in the project directory, run `pod install'.. But I can't do pod install.

If anyone could give a gint of how solve this, I would really appreciate that. Thanks!

Answer 1

run command from the project root folder.

if npm

rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json

if yarn

rm -rf node_modules yarn.lock

remove ^ from every package

set package version from the concerned library if that version exists then ok, otherwise set version that actually exists

run command

npm install or yarn install

then

cd ios

run command from ios folder

rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock

then

pod install

Thanks!! I followed all the steps and now I can do the pod install. Apparently I have some build issues now, but I think I can handle them by myself. Have a nice day! – Twoply

In my case, I need to update my repo as well with "pod repo update" or "pod install --repo-update" – Lizalizabeth

its start working now thanks – Shashaban

For me, what worked is removing version of Firebase service in Podfile, then following these steps except I didnt do the whole: remove ^ from every package set package version from the concerned library if that version exists then ok, otherwise set version that actually exists – Beckford

Answer 2

I had a similar issue with with the error CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Firebase/Database" ....

Running pod repo update and then pod install resolved the issue.

Answer 3

I having same issue when installing pod, see below error.

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Stripe": In Podfile: Stripe (~> 23.8.0)

I fixed and working,

• required a higher minimum deployment target.
• Xcode -> General -> Minimun Deployments Target
• Select iOS target higher e.g 13.0.

Thank You!

Answer 4

Remove the reference to Firebase/Crash.

It was deprecated a few years ago in favor of Firebase/Crashlytics

Thanks! That helped. I still have some problems aynway, but I think I can handle them mysellf. Have a nice day! – Twoply

Answer 5

In my case removing Podfile.lock helped. But this operation is quite unsafe.

Borg

In what way is it unsafe? Please elaborate. – Darbydarce

@TashPemhiwa Podfile.lock freezes all the versions of dependencies including pods without explicitly specified versions. There is no guarantee that pod install provides exactly the same pod versions and you could successfully compile your project. – Borg

Answer 6

I know this is old, but none of the above worked for me. What worked was adding the following to the plugins section inside app.json:

       [
        "expo-build-properties",
         {
          "ios": {
             "useFrameworks": "static"
           }
         }
       ]

Hopefully this helps someone!

Answer 7

Here are the steps you can take to resolve this issue:

Run the following command to update your CocoaPods source repositories to the latest versions:

pod repo update

Update Pods: After updating the repositories, update the pods in your project:

pod update

Clean and Reinstall Pods: If the issue persists, you can try cleaning and reinstalling the pods:

rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock
pod install

Here is a summary of the commands to run:

pod repo update
pod update
rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock
pod install

Answer 8

if you use NotificationExtension in pod file note the version is used in here after commented try to run pod install then uncomment and run pod install once more

# target 'NotificationExtension' do # pod 'Firebase/Messaging', '~> 18.3.0' # eg 6.31.0 # end – Gate
