How to fix Flutter Failed to build iOS app?

Question

I updated my Xcode to Version 13.4 and android studio to Chipmunk and after this, I am getting below error while trying to build for ios. This issue is only occurring for ios builds.

Below is the log I am getting.

Xcode build done.                                           19.5s

I'm facing the same issue since the upgrade to Flutter 3. Running `flutter clean` and rebuilding usually works. If it doesn't I run `flutter clean` then build via Xcode, once the app is deployed, you can build again from Android Studio/VS Code — Leviathan, May 27 '22 at 15:13
I tried this as well but still the same. Also, I downgraded my Xcode to 13.2.1 still giving the same problem. — bhaskar, May 28 '22 at 12:38

The problem here is that the Podfile that Flutter template creates by default has no specific iOS version set unfortunately.

Do this to fix this problem:

in ios/ folder of your project, open the Podfile. At top of Podfile, make sure this line is not commented out and change the iOS version to 12.0.

change from:

#platform :ios, '8.0'

to:

platform :ios, '12.0' Run pod deintegrate in Terminal inside the ios/ folder of your project.

Run pod install --repo-update in your ios/ folder

This should do the trick!

If after this you are getting the following error

CocoaPods did not set the base configuration of your project because your project already has a custom config set. In order for CocoaPods integration to work at all, please either set the base configurations of the target

Then you need to open your iOS workspace in Xcode and select your root project on top left, then inside the Info tab, choose your configuration (in this case Debug) and change it to None. After that, do pod install again.
