Cocoapods: Brew based CocoaPods CLI fails in MacOS 10.15 Catalina due incorrect fallback to Ruby 2.3

Created on 1 Jul 2019  ·  55Comments  ·  Source: CocoaPods/CocoaPods

Report

TL;DR Work-around

Install from gem instead of brew, via gem install cocoapods per related https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/6778

What did you do?

Tried to run cocoapods on Mac 10.15, from a Brew based installation

type pod

What did you expect to happen?

Brew based cocoapods installer should link to available "Current" Ruby version, instead of falling back to 2.3, which hasn't been available for a while.

What happened instead?

Brew defaulted to using unavailable Ruby 2.3, as in the case of the related High Sierra bug:

Fails with following one-line error message
/usr/local/Cellar/cocoapods/1.7.3/bin/pod: /usr/local/Cellar/cocoapods/1.7.3/libexec/bin/pod: /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/bin/ruby: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
/usr/local/Cellar/cocoapods/1.7.3/bin/pod: line 2: /usr/local/Cellar/cocoapods/1.7.3/libexec/bin/pod: Undefined error: 0

CocoaPods Environment

Mac 10.15 / Catalina
Brew based cocoapods - defaults to 2.3, instead of "Current"

This won't run due to reliance on deprecated Ruby 2.3 which does not exist on later Mac versions.

Project that demonstrates the issue

Base Mac 10.15 install, install / upgrade cocoapods, then try to run

Still doesn't work on the official release of Catelina. Tried the "sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods " and "brew install cocoapods --build-from-source", still not working.

So can we close this? I cant seem confirmation or updates in Homebrew that dealt with the Ruby version and I am still not on Catalina to verify.

This issue came up for me with Catalina 15.2. "brew install cocoapods --build-from-source" with "brew link --overwrite cocoapods" did not work for me. I updated to Catalina 15.3 and did "brew reinstall cocoapods" which worked.

or

Otherwise it will fail.

I know this is old, and closed, but this might help someone. The issue for me was that I had messed with my ruby installation a while back and had rvm installed. So this is what resolved this issue for me:

  1. removed all of my ruby env variables from my .zshrc (eg export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin")
  2. restart iTerm/Terminal
  3. removed rvm using rvm implode and rm -rf ~/.rvm
  4. restart iTerm/Terminal
  5. finally pod install worked
