attempted to initialize an object with an unknown UUID

Question

I have taken SVN check-in for a project. Thereafter I have installed pod via terminal. After installation of pod there are few warning stating

Answer 1

This error happened to me after resolving some merge conflicts in the project file.

In Xcode 11.4.1, I removed Pods_TARGETNAME.framework under Project Settings > General > Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content.

I then ran pod install, after which everything was fine again.

Answer 2

The way I solved that is not described in the thread

• Commented all pods and run pod install. Pods folder eventually removed. But still having the warning in the terminal

• Uncommented the pod. re-run pod install. The warning is now gone.

Answer 3

I don't know if you fixed this or not, but for future reference, I has the same issue.

On my case, after opening .pbxproj file on a text editor, realised that the first UUID pointed to the 'Copy Bundle Resources' of the 'Build Phases'.

Removing that and adding again fixed the issue for me.

Answer 4

The reason that happened in my case was some developer updated a pod A while I installed a new pod B (without updated pod A). So when I merged his codes I got the warning.

An easy way to fix this is to

1. remove libPods.a from General->Linked Frameworks and libraries 
2. run `pod install` or `pod update "an-existing-pod"` again. 

For step #2 the purpose is to update .xcodeproj file not to install pod again. If pod is already there cocoapods will just update .xcodeproj file.

Answer 5

Xcode 8 - 11

Target > General > Linked Frameworks and Libraries

Answer 6

Just run

pod clean pod install.

And those errors should go.
