I am trying to create a Podfile for my Xcode project for Firebase compatibility, but when I try to create it within the same file that my Xcode project is stored in, using my terminal and typing "pod init", it throws the error "-bash: pod: command not found".
I am up to date on OSX as far as I'm aware, using Sierra 10.12.1, but I am unfamiliar with the use of Podfiles, so any help here would be great, thanks.
Looks like you didn't install CocoaPods.
To do that you install it through ruby gems, like this:
sudo gem install cocoapods
If you don't have admin privileges, try:
gem install cocoapods --user-install
if the 1st command doesn't work, try the 2nd command
sudo gem install cocoapods
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
In my case, the 2nd command worked
For OS Catalina (as of December 2019)
gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
Brew install
$ brew install cocoapods
For me sudo gem install cocoapodsdid not work.
When I tried $sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods it threw me weird error messages. But brew install was pretty neat.
Got this error today. Was able to resolve it by making sure I had ruby in my PATH.
export PATH=/usr/bin/ruby:$PATH
Then (as suggested by answers above) run
sudo gem install cocoapods
Or
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
I ran into this problem yesterday, I reckon others in my situation will be too. So I am running a mac OS siera on a virtual machine on my windows so I can use xcode. Firstly you will need to update your version of ruby, it has been answered here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/38194139/7451779.
Once updated this just run: $ sudo gem install cocoapods
After all this $ pod init should work
When i install mac os sierra, trying install cocoapods, but appear error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::Exception)
Unable to require openssl, install OpenSSL and rebuild ruby (preferred) or use non-HTTPS sources
but i already installed openssl and ruby,i really don't know is why,does anyone know?
Install Cocoapods by below 3 commands
sudo gem update --system -n/usr/local/bin
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
pod setup
I am not able to install and run fakes3 gem on El Capitan Beta 5.
I tried:
sudo gem install fakes3
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EPERM)
Operation not permitted - /usr/bin/fakes3
Then I tried doing it the cocoapods way. It worked for cocoapods but not for fakes3.
mkdir -p $HOME/Software/ruby
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/Software/ruby
gem install cocoapods
[...]
1 gem installed
gem install fakes3
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory.
Disclaimer: #theTinMan and other Ruby developers often point out not to use sudo when installing gems and point to things like RVM. That's absolutely true when doing Ruby development. Go ahead and use that.
However, many of us just want some binary that happens to be distributed as a gem (e.g. fakes3, cocoapods, xcpretty …). I definitely don't want to bother with managing a separate ruby. Here are your quicker options:
Option 1: Keep using sudo
Using sudo is probably fine if you want these tools to be installed globally.
The problem is that these binaries are installed into /usr/bin, which is off-limits since El Capitan. However, you can install them into /usr/local/bin instead. That's where Homebrew install its stuff, so it probably exists already.
sudo gem install fakes3 -n/usr/local/bin
Gems will be installed into /usr/local/bin and every user on your system can use them if it's in their PATH.
Option 2: Install in your home directory (without sudo)
The following will install gems in ~/.gem and put binaries in ~/bin (which you should then add to your PATH).
gem install fakes3 --user-install -n~/bin
Make it the default
Either way, you can add these parameters to your ~/.gemrc so you don't have to remember them:
gem: -n/usr/local/bin
i.e. echo "gem: -n/usr/local/bin" >> ~/.gemrc
or
gem: --user-install -n~/bin
i.e. echo "gem: --user-install -n~/bin" >> ~/.gemrc
(Tip: You can also throw in --no-document to skip generating Ruby developer documentation.)
In my case, I had to re-install Ruby using Brew. That seems to have solved the problem as I can install gems again.
brew install ruby
After this, you need to log out and log back in, either graphically or just restarting your terminal.
That is because of the new security function of OS X "El Capitan".
Try adding --user-install instead of using sudo:
$ gem install *** --user-install
For example, if you want to install fake3 just use:
$ gem install fake3 --user-install
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
Try this. It will definately work.
You have to update Xcode to the newest one (v7.0.1) and everything will work as normal.
If after you install the newest Xcode and still doesn't work try to install gem in this way:
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin GEM_NAME_HERE
For example:
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin fakes3
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin compass
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin susy
Looks like when upgrading to OS X El Capitain, the /usr/local directory is modified in multiple ways :
user permissions are reset (this is also a problem for people using Homebrew)
binaries and symlinks might have been deleted or altered
[Edit] There's also a preliminary thing to do : upgrade Xcode...
Solution for #1 :
$ sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
This will fix permissions on the /usr/local directory which will then help both gem install and brew install|link|... commands working properly.
Solution to #2 :
Ruby based issues
Make sure you have fixed the permissions of the /usr/local directory (see #1 above)
First try to reinstall your gem using :
sudo gem install <gemname>
Note that it will install the latest version of the specified gem.
If you don't want to face backward-compatibility issues, I suggest that you first determine which version of which gem you want to get and then reinstall it with the -v version. See an exemple below to make sure that the system won't get a new version of capistrano.
$ gem list | grep capistrano
capistrano (3.4.0, 3.2.1, 2.14.2)
$ sudo gem install capistrano -v 3.4.0
Brew based issues
Update brew and upgrade your formulas
$ brew update
$ brew upgrade
You might also need to re-link some of them manually
$ brew link <formula>
As it have been said, the issue comes from a security function of Mac OSX since "El Capitan".
Using the default system Ruby, the install process happens in the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory which is not available to the user and gives the error.
You can have a look to your Ruby environments parameters with the command
$ gem env
There is an INSTALLATION DIRECTORY and a USER INSTALLATION DIRECTORY. To use the user installation directory instead of the default installation directory, you can use --user-install parameter instead as using sudo which is never a recommanded way of doing.
$ gem install myGemName --user-install
There should not be any rights issue anymore in the process. The gems are then installed in the user directory : ~/.gem/Ruby/2.0.0/bin
But to make the installed gems available, this directory should be available in your path. According to the Ruby’s faq, you can add the following line to your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc
if which ruby >/dev/null && which gem >/dev/null; then
PATH="$(ruby -rubygems -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')/bin:$PATH"
fi
Then close and reload your terminal or reload your .bash_profile or .bashrc (. ~/.bash_profile)
This is the solution that I have used:
Note: this fix is for compass as I wrote it on another SO question, but I have used the same process to restore functionality to all terminal processes, obviously the gems you are installing are different, but the process is the same.
I had the same issue. It is due to Apple implementing System Integrity Protection (SIP). You have to first disable that...
Reboot in recovery mode:
Reboot and hold Command + R until you see the apple logo.
Once booted select Utilities > Terminal from top bar.
type: csrutil disable
then type: reboot
Once rebooted
Open terminal back up and enter the commands:
sudo gem uninstall bundler
sudo gem install bundler
sudo gem install compass
sudo gem install sass
sudo gem update --system
The the individual gems that failed need to be fixed, so for each do the following:
On my machine this was the first dependency not working so I listed it:
sudo gem pristine ffi --version 1.9.3
Proceed through the list of gems that need to be repaired. In all you are looking at about 10 minutes to fix it, but you will have terminal commands for compass working.
Screenshot
If the gem you are trying to install requires xml libraries, then try this:
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin <gem_name> -- --use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=/usr/include/libxml2 --with-xml2-lib=/usr/lib/
Specifically, I ran into a problem while installing the nokogiri gem v 1.6.8 on OS X El Capitan
and this finally worked for me:
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin nokogiri -- --use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=/usr/include/libxml2 --with-xml2-lib=/usr/lib/
To make sure you have libxml2 and libxslt installed, you can do:
brew install libxml2 libxslt
brew install libiconv
and then check to make sure you have xcode command line tools installed:
xcode-select --install
should return this error:
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" to install updates
Reinstalling RVM worked for me, but I had to reinstall all of my gems afterward:
rvm implode
\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
rvm reload
I ran across the same issue after installing El Capitan, I tried to install sass and compass into a symfony project, the following command returned the following error:
$ sudo gem install compass
ERROR: Error installing compass:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb
checking for ffi.h... /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/mkmf.rb:434:in `try_do': The compiler failed to generate an executable file. (RuntimeError)
So I then tried to install sass with:
$ sudo gem install sass
Got the same error message, after some googling I managed to install sass using the following command:
$ sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin sass
The above worked for me with installing sass but did not work for installing compass. I read that someone somewhere had opened an instance of xcode then closed it again, then successfully ran the same command after which worked for them.
I attempted to open xcode but was prompted with a message saying that the version of xcode installed was not compatible with El Capitan.
So I then updated xcode from the app store, re-ran the following command which this time ran successfully:
$ sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin compass
I was then able to run $ compass init
I now have all my gems working and can proceed to build some lovely sass stuff :)
I had to rm -rf ./vendor then run bundle install again.
You might have two options:
If you've installed ruby and rails, you can first try running the command:
rvm fix-permissions
You can uninstall ruby completely, and reinstall in your ~ directory aka your home directory.
If you're using homebrew the command is:
brew uninstall ruby
For rails uninstall without homebrew the command is:
rvm remove
This should reinstall the latest ruby by running command:
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --rails<br>
Mac has 2.6.3 factory installed, and it's required... if not run this command:
rvm install "ruby-2.6.3"
and then:
gem install rails
You'll get a few error messages at the end saying you have to add some other bundles...
Just make sure you're in the home ~ directory when you're installing so the permissions won't be an issue, but just in case...
I again ran:
rvm fix-permissions
and:
rvm debug
which told me I had to download yarn, I didn't save the output for it. Basically I did whatever the prompt told me to do if it had to do with my OS.
-D
I don't like to install stuff with sudo.
once you start with sudo you can't stop..
try giving permissions to the Gems directory.
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0
sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
That will give permissions back (Homebrew installs ruby there)
I installed pod some time ago. However, it's stopped working so I'm working through this again.
However, I almost immediately run into a problem here:
pod install
-bash: pod: command not found
Any suggestions why this happened?
OK, found the problem. I upgraded Ruby some time ago and blasted away a whole load of gems. Solution:
sudo gem install cocoapods
For none-sudo use:
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/.gem
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH
gem install cocoapods --user-install
Installing CocoaPods on OS X 10.11
These instructions were tested on all betas and the final release of El Capitan.
Custom GEM_HOME
This is the solution when you are receiving above error
$ mkdir -p $HOME/Software/ruby
$ export GEM_HOME=$HOME/Software/ruby
$ gem install cocoapods
[...]
1 gem installed
$ export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Software/ruby/bin
$ pod --version
0.38.2
This Step Is Proper Working.
Pod Install
[ 1 ] Open terminal and type:
sudo gem install cocoapods
Gem will get installed in Ruby inside the System library. Or try on 10.11 Mac OSX El Capitan, type:
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
If there is an error "activesupport requires Ruby version >= 2.xx", then install the latest active support first by typing in the terminal.
sudo gem install activesupport -v 4.2.6
[ 2 ] After installation, there will be a lot of messages, read them and if no error found, it means cocoa pod installation is done. Next, you need to set up the cocoa pod master repo. Type in terminal:
pod setup
And wait it will download the master repo. The size is very big (370.0MB in Dec 2016). So it can be a while. You can track the download by opening Activity and go to the Network tab and search for git-remote-https. Alternatively, you can try adding verbose to the command like so:
pod setup --verbose
[ 3 ] Once done it will output "Setup Complete", and you can create your XCode project and save it.
[ 4 ] Then in a terminal cd to "your XCode project root directory" (where your .xcodeproj file resides) and type:
pod init
[ 5 ] Then open your project's podfile by typing in terminal:
open -a Xcode Podfile
[ 6 ] Your Podfile will get open in text mode. Initially, there will be some default commands in there. Here is where you add your project's dependencies. For example, in the podfile, type
/****** These are Third party pods names ******/
pod 'OpenSSL-Universal'
pod 'IQKeyboardManager'
pod 'FTPopOverMenu'
pod 'TYMActivityIndicatorView'
pod 'SCSkypeActivityIndicatorView'
pod 'Google/SignIn'
pod 'UPStackMenu'
(this is For example of adding library to your project).
When you are done editing the podfile, save it and close XCode.
[ 7 ] Then install pods into your project by typing in terminal:
pod install
Depending on how many libraries you added to your podfile for your project, the time to complete this varies. Once completed, there will be a message that says
"Pod installation complete! There are X dependencies from the Podfile and X total pods installed."
For macOS:
brew install --cask cocoapods
Original answer (outdated):
brew install cocoapods
brew cask install cocoapods-app
You have to restart Terminal after installing the gem. Or you can simply open a new tab Terminal to fix.
for M1mac people
first install cocoapods
brew install cocoapods
and if you are doing this for ios react-native
pod install
I had the same problem, running Mountain Lion with Ruby 2 installed and used instead of system ruby.
Previously I added PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH to my ~/.bash_profile as a way to make sure stuff installed by homebrew, including Ruby 2, took precedence over system-installed binaries.
Anyway, in this case I noticed that cocoapods would install their 'pod' binary not in /usr/local/bin but rather in /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.0.0-p247/bin/
So to my .bash_profile I added PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.0.0-p247/bin/
and now cocoapods is working like a charm.
Uninstall all instances of cocopods by this command
$sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
sudo chmod +rx /usr/local/bin/
Try this:
sudo gem install cocoapods -V
and you must update gem to the newest release using this:
sudo gem update --system
if you want to enjoy the fast responce :)
try:
rbenv global system
and then
sudo gem install cocoapods
pod setup
Sudo-less installation
If you do not want to grant RubyGems admin privileges for this process, you can tell RubyGems to install into your user directory by passing either the --user-install flag to gem install or by configuring the RubyGems environment. The latter is in our opinion the best solution. To do this, create or edit the .profile file in your home directory and add or amend it to include these lines:
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/.gem
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH
Note that if you choose to use the --user-install option, you will still have to configure your .profile file to set the PATH or use the command prepended by the full path. You can find out where a gem is installed with gem which cocoapods. E.g.
$ gem install cocoapods --user-install
$ gem which cocoapods
/Users/eloy/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.29.0/lib/cocoapods.rb
$ /Users/eloy/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/bin/pod install
Source: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html
In terminal it's better to run installation of the cocoa pods with "sudo". In other case I'm getting an error: "You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory."
So the solution is:
sudo gem install cocoapods
so I also had the same problem. This is probably happening because your computer has an older version of ruby. So you need to first update your ruby. Mine worked for ruby 2.6.3 version.I got this solution from sStackOverflow,
You need to first open terminal and put this code
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
Then put this command
rvm install ruby-2.6
This would install the ruby for you if it hasn' t been installed.After this just update the ruby to the new version
rvm use ruby-2.6.3
After this just make ruby 2.6.3 your default
rvm --default use 2.6.3
This would possibly fix your issue. You can now put the command
sudo gem install cocoapods
And the command
pod setup
I hope this was useful
This solution worked for me. Make sure to not miss the last command (export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Software/ruby/bin).
See This.
install cocoapods from https://cocoapods.org/app
Commands & versions keep onchanging
so download tar and enjoy
gterzian is on the right track, however, if you later update your version of ruby then you'll also have to update your .profile to point to the new versioned ruby directory. For instance, the current version of ruby is 2.0.0-p353 so you'd have to add /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.0.0-p353/bin to your path instead.
A better solution is to add /usr/local/opt/ruby/bin to your PATH. /usr/local/opt/ruby is actually a symlink to the current version of ruby that homebrew automatically updates when you do an upgrade. That way you'll never need to update your PATH and always be pointing to the latest version.
it happens to me when I wrote
gem install cocoapods
instead of
sudo gem install cocoapods
if sudo command is not found also, write
export PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
before sudo command
If you used homebrew to install ruby, this answer worked for me.
brew unlink ruby && brew link ruby
OSX 10.9.4
#Babul Prabhakar was right
IMPORTANT:
However,if you still get "pod: command not found" after using his solution, this command could solve your problem:
sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
Please remove the Ruby folder from -Your Disk->Library->Ruby
Deleting this folder and use sudo gem install cocoapods command to solve my issue.

Go into Xcode 12 preferences Click locations Select Xcode 12 for Developer tools/command line tools Install cocoapods for Xcode 12: sudo gem install cocoapods
This worked for me
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
sudo gem install cocoapods
CocoaPods is built with Ruby and it will be installable with the default Ruby available on macOS. You can use a Ruby Version manager, however we recommend that you use the standard Ruby available on macOS unless you know what you're doing.
sudo gem install cocoapods
Resource: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html
We were using an incompatible version of Ruby inside of Terminal (Mac), but once we used RVM to switch to Ruby 2.1.2, Cocoapods came back.
Install pod
sudo gem install cocoapods
Navigate inside platforms/ios
cd platforms/ios
Run pod install
I'm using OS Catalina and used the solution of Babul Prabhakar.
But when I closed the terminal, pod still was unable.
So I put the exports:
$ export GEM_HOME=$HOME/Software/ruby
$ export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Software/ruby/bin
inside this file(put this command below inside the terminal):
nano ~/.bash_profile
Then save the file, close the terminal and open it up again and type:
pod --version
this link help me a lot
it work now for me on catalina (patched for macbook pro 2011) with xcode 12.4.
may sure that you don't have another older version on your mac, for me having an old xcode 10.x in my download folder caused me many issue, so read verbose instruction in terminal, that help me to solve my problem.
I'm getting an error when I run 'gem install cocoapods' on OSX Mavericks.
$ gem install cocoapods
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'cocoapods' (>= 0), here is why:
Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - bad response backend read error 503 (https://rubygems.global.ssl.fastly.net/quick/Marshal.4.8/cocoapods-0.27.1.gemspec.rz)
ERROR: Possible alternatives: cocoapods
Please note that I can download the cocoapods-0.27.1.gemspec.rz directly. I am running the latest version of XCode (5.0.1) and the latest version of its CLI tools. RVM is also configured to run the latest Ruby version (2.0.0p247)
Sometimes ,the default source for gem, https://rubygems.org/, can't be accessed.
It should be removed by command:
gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/
And then new source should be added:
gem sources -a https://ruby.taobao.org/
Update the cache:
gem sources -u
You can check sources with:
gem sources
Finally , you can install cocoapods:
sudo gem install cocoapods
Use the below mentioned steps to install Cocoapods in your machine,
I solved the same issue with be below mentioned steps
1.Install command line tools using the command
xcode-select --install
2.Install Home brew by
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
3.Install Ruby using homebrew
brew install ruby
4.Check Ruby version
ruby -v
5.Install Ruby
gem source -a http://rubygems.org/
6.gem install cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods
or
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
7.Go to below folder
cd ~/.cocoapods/repos
8.Run the below command
git clone https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git master
9.Go to the directory where Podfile is present and run
pod install
It work for me:
Remove https source by command:
gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/
And then new http source should be added:
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/
Update the cache:
gem sources -u
Though I'm not sure what caused read error 503 I was able to work around the problem fairly easily by manually installing the cocoapods.gem.
If anyone else experiences similar problems (with cocoapods or any other gem), download the appropriate gem file (cocoapods-0.27.1.gem in my case) directly from RubyGems.org. Then run the gem install cocoapods-0.27.1.gem. The install command will scan the working directory first, thus detecting and installing the local gem package, cutting out the broken repository.
I found that just removing and re-adding rubygems seemed to work for me ( using the High Sierra on Mac) I prefer to use the official Rubygems repos
gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/
gem sources -a https://rubygems.org/
gem sources -u
sudo gem install cocoapods
I assume it must have been a glitch..
This worked for me. Make sure to include sudo with install command.
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/
gem sources -u
sudo gem install cocoapods
Just follow there steps and error is gone
1.Install command line tools using the command
xcode-select --install
2.Install Home brew by
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
3.Install cocapods using home-brew, it take care of everything
brew install cocoapods
4. Last step
pod setup
For me I had to change rubygems.org to be the gems url used at my company (which caches from rubygems.org).
I did sudo gem install cocoapods --source <my_company_url_for_gems>
Let all http replace https,because the right cocoa pods's sources is https://ruby.taobao.org/
