CocoaPods with Xcode 10 RuntimeError Xcodeproj doesn't know about the following attributes

Question

I'm trying to install a pod with pod install and getting the following error:

RuntimeError - [!] Xcodeproj doesn't know about the following attributes {"inputFileListPaths"=>[], "outputFileListPaths"=>[]} for the 'PBXShellScriptBuildPhase' isa.

I'm using CocoaPods 1.5.3 and Xcode 10.

Answer 1

This is a known bug introduced by Xcode 10 which fixed in CocoaPods 1.6.0. Right now (Jan 2019) it's in beta, so you can install it with

sudo gem install cocoapods --pre

Alternative solution for CocoaPods 1.5.3 could be found here.

Remove following

  inputFileListPaths = (

  );


  outputFileListPaths = (

  );
