I've been running into a couple of strange errors in terminal when updating cocoapods after updating a Switf2 project to Swift3. Here are the errors:

[!] The `MyShowGuide [Debug]` target overrides the `FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS` build setting defined in `Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-MyShowGuide/Pods-MyShowGuide.debug.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation
    - Use the `$(inherited)` flag, or
    - Remove the build settings from the target.

[!] The `MyShowGuide [Release]` target overrides the `FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS` build setting defined in `Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-MyShowGuide/Pods-MyShowGuide.release.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation
    - Use the `$(inherited)` flag, or
    - Remove the build settings from the target.

So far I've tried numerous ways to try and remedy the issue including deleting derived data and running pod deintegrate/ pod install. I also added $(inherited) to the Other Linker Flags and Header Search Paths but still get the error.

    Do exactly what it suggests. Go into the Build Settings for "Framework Search Paths" and change the value for your target to be "$(inherited)". Why are you messing with "Other Linker Flags" and "Header Search Paths"? (You probably want $(DEVELOPER_FRAMEWORKS_DIR) in there as well as $(inherited)) – Tibrogargan Nov 14 '16 at 23:22
  • Thanks that worked, in plain sight. – SwiftyJD Nov 14 '16 at 23:30
  • There is no menu called "Framework Search path". Can you check if the answer needs to be updated in case of new versions? – Nasenbaer Apr 22 '20 at 18:50

This worked for me:

https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/5981#issuecomment-363591574

  1. Go to Build Settings
  2. Search for "Runpath Search Paths".
  3. Double click the value field and add $(inherited)
  4. Product -> Clean Build Folder

Run the cocoapods command in the terminal and things should go fine this time.

    This is the only thing that worked. I also had to add to the Header Search Paths. Then clean and pod install again – jdog Mar 25 '20 at 22:48

  1. Target - > build settings- > BuildOptions-> Validate Build Product, Here the Debug value type is Boolean, Click here to change the value No to YES

  2. Perform - Build Clean

  3. Done

  • The correct answer is in the comment by @Tibrogargan in the comment below the question. I am not sure how your proposed solution would fix the issue. – Gene Z. Ragan Sep 02 '19 at 17:40

I'm new to iOS development, but the only thing that worked for me - is adding $(inherited) to the Linker Flags as described here https://mokacoding.com/blog/cocoapods-the-inherited-flag/

P.S. The iOS project was originally created from React Native template.

Build Settings > Other Linker Flags section.

In my case i had deleted literary search path while solving another error so i just clicked debug and pasted $(inherited) the i clicked release and again pasted $(inherited) you can probably do the same for other fields and this is what is being told in the error message as well i.e use the $(inherited) flag After this just do pod update

For me, the accepted answer didn't fully work. I had to add $(inherited) to the Project itself and both build tests.

enter image description here

In short, just click all 3 places where the red arrows are pointing, and follow the same directions.

Building Settings > All > in the search box enter ALWAYS EMBED SWIFT STANDARD LIBRARIES > click on the NO > click Other... in the box that opens paste $(inherited) then press the return key.

You have to do this 3x total. One for each place where the red arrows are pointing.
