I already had some trouble installing cocoapods in the first place. When I ran sudo gem install cocoapods in terminal (zsh) I got the following:

    drb requires Ruby version >= 2.7.0. The current ruby version is 2.6.10.210.

So then I ran sudo gem install drb -v 2.0.6:

followed by sudo gem install cocoapods and got the following:

With this done, I assume cocoapods should be installed and in working order. So I tried to run the app with target platform macOS and this is where it didn't work (getting "Error running pod install"). After some searching around I tried the steps mentioned here:

flutter clean
rm -Rf macos/Pods
rm -Rf macos/.symlinks
rm -Rf macos/Flutter/Flutter.framework
rm -Rf macos/Flutter/Flutter.podspec
flutter pub get
cd macos
pod install

Then I tried running the app again via vscode ui and via terminal (I tried zsh AND bash) in vscode and it still get the same error.

Here is my flutter doctor -v:

Solution

  • Seems like cocoapods installed with preinstalled system ruby – that's not great and been reported many times as unreliable way.

    Try installing with brew instead:

    1. sudo gem uninstall cocoapods – to remove previous installation
    2. brew install cocoapods

    If using brew is impossible in your environment – you still need to avoid system installation of Ruby. For this, try to use rbenv and install cocoapods with separate ruby
