I know this is an old issue. But i produced this issue in a very strange way. Actually I had developed an app installed pods and everything in Deployment Target as 11.2. I took a an .ipa for it and sent it to the client for testing. But the Client is unable to install because the iPad Mini 1 is not having an iOS 10 or above update. So I reduced the deployment target to 9.3 current iOS version of iPad Mini1 that the client is having. On taking an archive Xcode produces the error like this:
what is the issue?? Do we need to Unintall pods and install again or just modify the existing pod file? Please Help.
Make sure your Podfile also specifies iOS 9.3 as the deployment target:
platform :ios, '9.3'
