I am running CocoaPods to add a dependency to my project.

My pod file is located at Users/myUser/Desktop/project/project.

It looks like this:

source 'https://github.com/hackiftekhar/IQKeyboardManager.git'

pod 'IQKeyboardManager'

xcodeproj '../project.xcodeproj'

and it is named Podfile.

When I run pod install, I get this output:

Analyzing dependencies

[!] An unexpected version directory Categories was encountered for the /Users/myUser/.cocoapods/repos/hackiftekhar/IQKeyboardManager Pod in the IQKeyboardManager repository.

What is CocoaPods expecting here and how can I fix this?

Thanks,

C

How to fix this is described in the Cocoapod repo, issue 6089.

Jest of it copied here in case link breaks in the future:

  1. Starting point

I try to create a private pod.

  • Environment: Xcode 8 Cocoapods 1.1.1

  • My Pods file tree:

looks like this

.
├── LICENSE
├── MoudlePod3
│   ├── 0.0.1
│   │   └── MoudlePod3.podspec
│   ├── TestObject3.h
│   └── TestObject3.m
├── MoudlePod3.podspec
└── README.md
  • run pod install

Everything is perfect!

  • Change creating the issue: Then I add some new folder and files to the pod Updated pods file tree:

. ├── LICENSE ├── MoudlePod3 │ ├── 0.0.1 │ │ └── MoudlePod3.podspec │ ├── 0.0.4 │ │ └── MoudlePod3.podspec │ ├── NewClass │ │ ├── TestObjectNew.h │ │ └── TestObjectNew.m │ ├── TestObject3.h │ └── TestObject3.m ├── MoudlePod3.podspec └── README.md

  • Increment podspec version to 0.0.4

  • Update client's podfile as follow: Demo Project Pod file:

    source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' source 'http:///ljb/MoudlePod3.git'

    target 'MoudleApp' do pod 'MoudlePod3', '~> 0.0.4' end

  • run pod install

[!] An unexpected version directory NewClass was encountered for the /Users/apple/.cocoapods/repos/MoudlePod3/MoudlePod3 Pod in the MoudlePod3 repository.

  1. Explanation & solution from @benasher44 : Ah, so source 'http:///ljb/MoudlePod3.git' means that it expects that to be a specs repo, but it looks like you're trying to combine a specs repo and the repo where you keep the code for your pod, which is unsupported. You should instead remove the custom source line and do something like pod 'MoudlePod3', '~> 0.0.4', :git => ''. Checkout https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/the-podfile.html#from-a-podspec-in-the-root-of-a-library-repo for more info.

or in my case fix the source line to point to the private specs repo not the pod's source repo... Doh!

Hope that helps.

I had a similar issue:

[!] An unexpected version directory `Base.lproj` was encountered for the etc...

updating to the latest version of cocoapods seemed to resolve it:

gem install cocoapods --pre

Have a look at CocoaPods issue

Hope that helps.

  • thanks, in my case updating source to'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' fixed it – ChrisC Jan 24 '15 at 16:37
  • In my case, even updating to github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git still yields a similar error – Isaac Oct 03 '16 at 16:40
  • this issue is about version 0.35.0 :( – Abner Terribili Nov 22 '16 at 18:59
  • I'm on Cocoapods 1.2.1, ruby 2.0.0p481, RubyGems 2.4.5, Mac OS X 10.12.5, Xcode 8.3.3 and still experiencing this issue. Surely it's been fixed since cocoapods 0.35.0? Anyone knows how to solve this? – Litome Jun 22 '17 at 08:47
