`FirebaseInstallations` requires CocoaPods version `>= 1.12.0`, Build failed: Your project requires a newer version of CocoaPods

Question

In my react native project, when I run eas build --platform ios I get this error below

[!] `FirebaseInstallations` requires CocoaPods version `>= 1.12.0`, which is not satisfied by your current version, `1.11.3`.

Build failed: Your project requires a newer version of CocoaPods. You can update it in the build profile in eas.json by either:
- changing the current version under key "cocoapods"
- switching to an image that supports that version under key "image"

I have run sudo gem install cocoapods and pod --version says 1.15.2

also run Cd ios, pod deintegrate, npx pod-install

I have also updated my eas.json

"ios": {
       "buildConfiguration": "Debug",
       "cocoapods": "1.15.2"
     }

But I'm still getting the same error when building for IOS

Answer 1

I found that I had to add "cocoapods": "1.15.2" under build.production and I only had it under build.development so for it to work, it should look something like this:

 "build": {
 "production": {
      "ios": {
        "cocoapods": "1.15.2"
      },
      "channel": "production"
    }
}

Answer 2

Run brew upgrade cocoapods command.

If that doesn't work try brew install cocoapods
