Using CocoaPods v1.9+, if you can't remove use_frameworks! from Podfile, you can set:

use_frameworks! :linkage => :static

Now that Swift supports static linking, CocoaPods has expanded this DSL to allow specifying the type of linkage preferred.

    Are there any consequences to adding `:linkage => :static`? – SamB Jul 18 '20 at 00:03
  • Thanks mate, spent lot of time. finally this worked. But my doubt is also same.Are there consequences for this? – Ravi Aug 09 '20 at 05:02

    @Ravi You're welcome! I think no, because Cocoapods using this, will generate full frameworks with statically linked libraries and module map files. – Maycon Mesquita Aug 09 '20 at 15:18

The solution for me was to remove use_frameworks! from Podfile.

Don't forget pod install, clear Derived Data and Erase All Content And Settings on your Simulator.

  • I am having the same issue, but in my case, I need to use use_frameworks! as mandatory, looking for a solution for almost 1 day. But still no clue – Jothi Kannan Mar 12 '20 at 10:08
  • @JothiKannan it is not required to use `use_frameworks!` since cocoa pods 1.5, check http://blog.cocoapods.org/CocoaPods-1.5.0/. Why do you need it? – Dima Portenko Mar 12 '20 at 10:23
  • I am using this https://pushy.me/docs/additional-platforms/react-native, push notification SDK which requires `use_frameworks!` – Jothi Kannan Mar 12 '20 at 11:50

    I haven't experience with it, my suggestion to try to update cocoapods to the latest version and try to use it without `use_frameworks!` – Dima Portenko Mar 12 '20 at 12:04

    I tried it, I have cocopod 1.9.1 and tried without `use_frameworks!` and ended up with lot of errors – Jothi Kannan Mar 12 '20 at 12:15

I have found a detailed solution here with screenshots:

https://handyopinion.com/solution-failed-to-load-info-plist-from-bundle-at-path-in-xcode/

Steps:

1. remove use_frameworks! from Podfile

2. Run pod install command

3. Delete Content of Derived Data Folder. For that navigate to File -> Workspace Settings in xCode then navigate to the Derived data folder and remove its content.

Go to YourTarget > Build Settings > Packaging > Info.plist File and check here the path to your .plist file.

Also it would be helpful to clear your derived data folder, and re-build project again.

  • Thanks for the answer, but Info.plist settings is fine. The error points to the Pods library, so maybe the issue related to the Pods. – Dima Portenko Jan 28 '20 at 08:35
  • That may be because there are two Plist files. Delete one of them. Also, try to give the path for plist in the xcodeproj after restarting the Xcode, where you can give the path initially somewhere. – nazaif Jan 28 '20 at 13:04

Had the same issue in Pod v1.11.2. I tried restarting the simulator, erasing content, restarting the machine, removed derived data from File->WorkSpace settings -> {derived data}

Nothing worked for me. Finally, the below magic steps helped,

  1. In the pod file replace 'use_frameworks!' with 'use_frameworks! :linkage => :static'
  2. Run 'pod install' // now you might get some other issue
  3. Revert 'use_frameworks! :linkage => :static' changes i.e replace 'use_frameworks! :linkage => :static' with 'use_frameworks!'
  4. Again run 'pod install'
