Error during pod installation. Test

[lucaswitch]

@vksgautam1986 i can see that your react-native info has some weird infos: hermesEnabled: Not found

[tyhudson]

I upgraded from 0.72.5 to 0.73.1 and nothing is working for pods.

Let me know if you find a fix to pods... might end up porting over to a new react native project again.

[lucaswitch]

Can you execute on ios directory:
bundle exec pod install and if not works can you paste your podfile here?
This must be some mistake(maybe) on the podfile

[vksgautam1986]

bundle exec pod install

hermas is getting installed but it getting failed in later stage
Fetching podspec for hermes-engine from ../node_modules/react-native/sdks/hermes-engine/hermes-engine.podspec
[Hermes] Using release tarball from URL: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/facebook/react/react-native-artifacts/0.73.1/react-native-artifacts-0.73.1-hermes-ios-debug.tar.gz

[cipolleschi]

@tyhudson please, open your ios/Podfile file and remove the __apply_Xcode_12_5_M1_post_install_workaround function. You probably skipped the Podfile from the upgrade-helper when upgrading to the new version.

@vksgautam1986 This seems like that the glog prepare step failed somehow, so glog was not configured properly.
Please try the following steps:

1. navigate to the ios folder.
2. if you haven't run it yet, please run bundle install
3. run bundle exec pod deintegrate
4. run bundle exec pod install
   Let me know if that fixes.

[vksgautam1986]

4. bundle exec pod install

navigate to the ios folder.
if you haven't run it yet, please run bundle install
run bundle exec pod deintegrate
run bundle exec pod install

thanks @cipolleschi i tried these steps but it did not worked for me and giving me the same issue
i have a reproducer attached for it

I tried cloning your project and it worked for me.

I believe that your xcode installation failed or is incomplete. The actual error is reported at the end of the message and it is:

checking whether the C compiler works... no

The solution should be to run

xcode-select --install

or to update Xcode from "Software Update" or to reinstall Xcode.

Out of curiosity, have you ever tried to open Xcode? It could also be that you updated it and just missed a last configuration step that is triggered only when you open the IDE.
Also, this could also be because there are no simulator installed: Xcode 15 comes with no iOS simulators, thus no iOS SDKs so they need to be installed manually.

For sanity check, can you provide these values:

1. Run xcodebuild -version
2. Run xcode-select -p
3. Run xcrun -version
4. Run xcrun -find -sdk iphoneos cc # -> this should output a path to the cc executable
5. Run xcrun -sdk iphoneos --show-sdk-path # -> this should output a path to the iphone SDK

I'm vksgautam1986 From my personal account - I'm using 14.2 And 14.3.1 xcode and I can create builds for ios from it. Rest for all of queries I will post here once I would be on system tomm morning. Thank you @cipolleschi
I also feel something is wrong with my xcode environment and I will try to go through it in more detail

[vksgautam1986]

Hi @cipolleschi

1. xcodebuild -version
   Xcode 14.3.1
   Build version 14E300b

2. xcode-select -p

3. xcrun -version
   xcrun version 64.

4. xcrun -find -sdk iphoneos cc

5. xcrun -sdk iphoneos --show-sdk-path

Hi @cipolleschi i tried the link below and able to install the pods also .i installed second xcode few days ago and there could be some issue bcs of that. Thank you i switched to primary Xcode.app , may be bcs i have space in my second xcode naming "Xcode 2", that could be the reason but nevertheless its working fine now. thank you.
