Cocoapods Folder Does Not Exist/Permissions Error

CocoaPods folder does not exist / permissions error

Turns out it was a permissions error. And the folder I thought didn't exist, was hidden in finder > Go > (Hold Down Option Key) Library

Took me 2 full days to finally figure it out!

cocoaPods pod install Permission denied

I solved this problem by running the following command:

sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Caches/CocoaPods

and

sudo chown -R $USER ~/.cocoapods

Please replace username and groupname with your Mac login username/groupname.

CocoaPods permission denied (Errno::EACCES - Permission denied @ dir_s_mkdir)

I answered it here: CocoaPods folder does not exist / permissions error

Can't run pod install - permission error

I ended up removing the "Bugsnatcher" podfile and reinstalling it. I had another error with a different podfile afterwards, but also reinstalled that one. Project built after that.

Problem with Cocoapods, showing error 'Couldn't determine repo type for URL' when installing pods

The error message says there's a permission issue:

Permission bits for '/Users/myUser/.netrc' should be 0600, but are 644

So in order to fix the permission, you should do this:

chmod 600 ~/.netrc

Then try to run pod install again. If the root cause was really this permissions issue then everything should work.

Pod install no permission

Seems to be Privilege Read only of the project and cocoapods can create folder Pod.

Try chmod 755 /react-native-firebase-starter/ios will give permission to create folder Pod

or clone react-native-firebase-starter on folder with permission read & write

You don't have write permissions for the /usr/bin directory. while installing Cocoapods

Try this, It worked for me

sudo gem install cocoapods -n /usr/local/bin

This answer has information on why /usr/bin is protected.

How to install cocoa pods

The problem is that you don't have permissions to run executables from /usr/bin, so you need to pass folder where to install cocoapods with proper permissions.

There are 2 ways:

Create new folder for GEM_HOME

mkdir -p $HOME/Software/ruby
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/Software/ruby
gem install cocoapods

When installation finished

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Software/ruby/bin

Install Cocoa Pods to /usr/local/bin

sudo gem install cocoapods -n /usr/local/bin

-n flag tells where binary files will be located.

Workspace created by cocoapods is locked

I had this problem recently. I don't know about the missing frameworks, but if you go to your project folder within terminal and modify the permissions on the project files, you should be able to open the project. I personally had to modify multiple files and folders to be able to get it to stop asking me if I want to unlock my files.

Steps that Worked for Me:

Use the terminal to go to the folder that contains the xcworkspace file. Type

sudo chmod 777 NameOfYourWorkspaceFile.xcworkspace 

(Please don't literally use that file name unless that's what your xcworkspace file is called). This should change the permissions for your entire workspace, but you will still have the unlock problem with your Pods project.

From within the same directory, you can do another chmod on the Pods folder like so:

sudo chmod 777 Pods

After that, go into your Pods folder by typing "cd Pods" and then modify the permissions on your Pods.xcodeproj file as so:

sudo chmod 777 Pods.xcodeproj

Like I said previously, these permission changes were enough to get xCode to stop asking me if I want to unlock my projects. I don't know if it will be enough for you though. Hopefully it helps!
