    There are a lot of solutions but after we got a similar error, in one case this fixed it `sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods`. Then the other case was to totall remove cocoapods and then reinstall. So `sudo gem uninstall cocoapods` then `gem install cocoapods` – Jay Dec 11 '20 at 19:04
  • @Jay I have uninstalled cocoapods and then again tried to install coaoapods, getting the same error – subhangi pawar Jan 05 '21 at 05:10

    Try it with brew. `brew cleanup -d -v ` and then `brew install cocoapods ` – Jay Jan 05 '21 at 19:22

I solved the above problem by updating the ruby to the latest version(3.0.0) using the following command in the terminal:

  1. Check the version of Ruby installed on your Mac

    ruby -v

  2. Install the Ruby Version Manager rvm

    curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

    Once this command has finished running you need to restart your terminal for rvm to be recognised.

  3. Install the latest version of Ruby

    rvm install ruby-[version]

    (or)

    rvm install ruby --latest

  4. Install cocoapods

    sudo gem install cocoapods

    "gem which cocoapods" - to check which version of cocoapods is installed. "sudo gem install cocoapods" - to update cocoapods "sudo xcode-select -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/" - if there are several Xcode tools installed – Naloiko Eugene Oct 20 '21 at 12:26

you need to install Xcode Developer Tools first, as mentioned in your error message. to install Developer Tools, open a Terminal and execute xcode-select --install command.

  • getting the same error after installing Xcode Developer Tool. Is there any Ruby issue? please refer to the screenshot attached above. – subhangi pawar Dec 09 '20 at 06:55
  • you could try to install it using `brew`. 1. install `brew`, if you don't have it installed: https://brew.sh/ 2. execute `brew install cocoapods` – BoygeniusDexter Dec 09 '20 at 09:39
