Xcode 9 crash during uploading app to App Store

Question

In my project the Xcode 9 crashes during uploading to App Store (or exporting to disk, it does not matter). I have found that it may be caused by cocoapods or some kind of external frameworks bug, because on my other projects which do not use cocoapods this bug does not happen. However why I created post about it here on stackoverflow is the question if anybody has a temporary solution to solve this issue?

Unfortunately it is not known when it will be fixed by Apple or cocapods...so...every help would be welcomed. I have already reported this bug to Apple with the (shortened) log below.

Answer 1

After struggling with Xcode 9 for many days and having tried so many things icluding some mentioned here. I ended up

1. Download and install Xcode 8.3.3 ( Always keep the older version, lesson for life )
2. Archive the app with Xcode 9
3. Open Xcode 8.3.3, open Organizer and submit the app

This works. Good luck.

Update: Xcode 9.0.1 and Xcode 9.1 beta doesn't fix the issue.
