React-native-firebase: No such file or directory: libRNFirebase.a

[BlakeRxxk]

Issue

Building my app in debug/release mode produce error
no such file or directory: '/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/App-aqmvuabcxrupkgfjyogwyxrtzbvk/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/libRNFirebase.a'
but real location of libRNFirebase.a is Debug-iphonesimulator/RNFirebase/libRNFirebase.a'

clean build and cleaning Derrived Data didn't help;
pod deintegrate didn't help;
upgrading RN version and RNF version it's not an option

is there any solutions?

How are you linking RNFirebase? Are you just running react-native link react-native-firebase? If you are, it might be worth trying to manually link that .a like step 2 in the linking guide.

@joshimbriani linking was manually

I know it's been a while, but I'm still facing this issue from time to time, mostly on my CI machine.
as I mention before main problem - is with linker

no such file or directory: '/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/App-aqmvuabcxrupkgfjyogwyxrtzbvk/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/libRNFirebase.a'
but real location of libRNFirebase.a is
/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/App-aqmvuabcxrupkgfjyogwyxrtzbvk/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/RNFirebase/libRNFirebase.a'

I tried manual linking and automatic, changing package versions (between 2.1.0 and 2.2.3) - nothing.

For me, I installed RNFirebase using cocoapods _after_ deserting the npm method. But I still had a RNFirebase.xcodeproj file under "Libraries." Try Deleting the RNFirebase Library.

I am having this issue every two weeks when I try to compile the new version of my app and after some build / clean / restart sometimes i get it to work but to be honest I don't understand what is causing this :s Any fix ?
