Adding sqlite3_flutter_libs in Pubspec.yaml is creating problem with iOS run

[derekhskim]

Hello Sir/Madam,

I am truly sorry to bother but when I add sqlite3_flutter_libs in pubspec.yaml, it is causing problem when I try to run on iOS simulator. I have tried to downgrade XCode, uninstalled and installed the cocoapods again, deleted android studio cache, deleting podfile.lock and running pod install in terminal (ios directory) etc, but none of them seems to be working.

Below is the error message I am receiving:

Warning: CocoaPods not installed. Skipping pod install. CocoaPods is used to retrieve the iOS and macOS platform side's plugin code that responds to your plugin usage on the Dart side. Without CocoaPods, plugins will not work on iOS or macOS. For more info, see https://flutter.dev/platform-plugins To install see https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html#installation for instructions.

CocoaPods not installed or not in valid state. Error launching application on iPhone 13.

Below is what I see when I run flutter doctor -v (to verify that Cocoapods is working fine): [✓] Flutter (Channel stable, 3.3.1, on macOS 12.6 21G115 darwin-arm, locale ko-KR) • Flutter version 3.3.1 on channel stable at /Users/derek/flutter • Upstream repository https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git • Framework revision 4f9d92fbbd (3주 전), 2022-09-06 17:54:53 -0700 • Engine revision 3efdf03e73 • Dart version 2.18.0 • DevTools version 2.15.0

Thanks for the report! Could you run pod install in your ios folder and post any error that might get printed?

No problem, thanks for responding. After the pod install, when I run the error still shows that

error. I've tried with different phone models as well. As soon as I block out the plugin, it works fine.

This sounds like a general issue with your Flutter install not finding CocoaPods. I suspect this is not due to sqlite3_flutter_libs. Just to check, does the error go away after removing your dependency on sqlite3_flutter_libs?

[derekhskim]

So I've suspected that too, but I've never had any issues with Cocoapods before. This error suddenly appeared when sqlite3_flutter_libs was added in the pubspec.yaml and once I remove this dependency, the error disappears and works fine.

I had a similar issue, you need to install CocoaPods. I recommend using brew to do that. Close down the simulator and your coding environment and rebuild, it should work.

Hello, thanks for adding a reply. I actually have CocoaPods installed via brew already. I have mentioned this in my question as well. That's actually not the problem, well it is but I did definitely delete and re-install, clear cache and all. Still no luck.
