@coderany You've specified RNFirebase as a pod rather than linking using react-native link. This has changed in 3.0.X to simplify things and fix issues like this.

To resolve, you have two options:

1) Remove the RNFirebase pod, run pod install and then react-native link
2) You'll have to add the React pod to the pod file as explained in the 2.0.x instructions: https://rnfirebase.io/docs/v2.2.*/installation-ios#2.1)-Add-the-required-pods

Just want to share my solution (for my future reference also)
using pod, React-Native version 0.49.5

  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
  pod 'RNFirebase', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-firebase'
  pod "yoga", :path => "../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga"
  pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [
  'BatchedBridge', # Required For React Native 0.45.0+
  'Core',
]
