Cocoapods error: 'Unable to read the license file'

Question

When I type

pods install

or

pods update

I get the following error for one library:

Unable

Answer 1

This is what worked for me:

1. remove the offending pod from Podfile
2. pod install
3. pod cache clean --all
4. add pod back into Podfile
5. pod install

Note: Be sure to pin the version from Podfile.lock in the Podfile if the locked version is required
