Pod install problem with React Native on macOS

Question

I’m running the latest version of react native, whenever I create a new project through the terminal, I receive a message saying that I have to install pods manually by going to the iOS folder. When I do so, the pod install fails. I’ve tried running ‘sudo gem install’ and deleting and reinstalling react native.

This is the error I'm getting now when trying to run rbenv:

BUILD FAILED (OS X 10.15.1 using ruby-build 20191111)

can you check to see if there is Podfile? and can you remove Podfile.lock before re-installing? — kenmistry

i see. are you able to do a pod repo update and rm -rf node_modules && npm install before doing a pod install? — kenmistry

it seems like your pod installation and downloads got blocked. can you take a look at this github comment? — kenmistry

how about sudo rm -rf ~/.cocoapods and do another pod install? there are also other suggestions raised in this SO post. check it out. — kenmistry

I have already faced this problem. I don't know why, but the default Ruby version on mac causes problems.

To get over this, I use Rbenv which is Ruby versions manager.

Here's how to install it

brew install rbenv

In your bash_profile or bashrc or zshrc whatever put this code and don't forget to source your file

export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"

Install a Ruby version with rbenv different from your actual version to be sure rbenv works.

rbenv install 2.5.3
rbenv global 2.5.3
rbenv rehash
ruby -v //ensure that you're now using 2.5.3 version
gem install cocoapods

Delete your Pods/ Podfile.lock and try to run pod install again. It should do the trick. As I said, it worked for me and the members of my project team. You must remember not to use sudo.

Keep me in touch I can provide clarification if you're stuck

You mean you can’t even install rbenv ?

I can successfully installed rbenv but I can't successfully run the command rbenv install 2.5.3
