This was my workflow:
I try to upload my unity project to the Apple app Store.
So i build the prject for ios.
On my Macbook iopened the prject in terminal and enter this command: pod install --repo-update
I need to do this, because i want to use google Admob.
After that, i opened the Unity-iPhone.xcworkspace file, enter my signing, adjust the iOS Deployment Target of my pods and start to archive it.
After a few moments i got this errors.
I think it is strange, because i dont want to use the UnityAds and did deactivate it in unity.
I solved the problem by deleting all files from my project that contained "mediation" or "unityAds".
