@JamesPJ have you found any solution?

@tjvantoll @rosen-vladimirov

Thanks

[NathanaelA]

@JamesPJ, @jitendraP-ashutec --- please see the https://nativescript.org/blog/nativescript-6-7-xcode-compatibility/

[JamesPJ]

@NathanaelA I've updated NS CLI to 6.8.0 as suggested in the compatibility page, I'm still facing the original issue. Here is the out of tns info.

✔ Getting NativeScript components versions information...
⚠ Update available for component nativescript. Your current version is 6.8.0 and the latest available version is 7.0.10.
✔ Component tns-core-modules has 6.5.20 version and is up to date.
✔ Component tns-android has 6.5.3 version and is up to date.
✔ Component tns-ios has 6.5.3 version and is up to date

Let me know whether I'm I still having the wrong versions.

[NathanaelA]

@JamesPJ - Are you still using xCode 11?

[JamesPJ]

@NathanaelA Yes, I'm still on 11.3 (11C29)

[NathanaelA]

Ok, a couple things can you try:

• First, using tns-ios 6.5.2 and see if it makes any difference? (tns platform remove ios & tns platform add [email protected])
• Second, if that doesn't work can you try using npm i -g [email protected]

[JamesPJ]

@NathanaelA Thank you for your support. After switching to 6.5.2 iOS is working now.

tns platform remove ios & tns platform add [email protected].
