when running pod install I get The `master` repo requires CocoaPods 0.32.1, try updating but still in 0.31

Question

Iam trying to install cocoa pods in a xcode project, but when doing:

$ pod install 

I get the following error:

Setting up CocoaPods master repo [!] The `master` repo requires CocoaPods 0.32.1 -  Update CocoaPods, or checkout the appropriate tag in the repo. /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/claide-0.5.0/lib/claide/command.rb:281:in `rescue in run': undefined method `verbose?' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) 

So I updated cocoapods

$ sudo gem update cocoapods 

But it tells me there is nothing to update:

Password: Updating installed gems Nothing to update 

run pod --version

but I get:

 0.31.0 

What could it be? Why it is not updating to the latest version (.32.1)?

Xcode: 5.1

ruby: 2.0.0p353

Answer 1

To update cocoapods just do

sudo gem install cocoapods 

and then you should be at the correct version

Answer 2

This is what worked for me.

1. Uninstall CocoaPods (choose to uninstall all versions):

   sudo gem uninstall cocoapods

2. Remove old master repo:

   sudo rm -fr ~/.cocoapods/repos/master

3. Install CocoaPods without sudo:

   gem install --user-install cocoapods

4. Setup CocoaPods and Master repo:

   pod setup

NOTE: Step 3 is going to make sure you install pod under your user name instead of root which sudo does.
