Multiple commands produce Parse.bundle

[Kiplol]

Xcode 11.4 Default build system

When trying to archive app using Parse and Parse/FacebookUtils integrated via Cocoapods, I get this build error.

Multiple commands produce '<removed>/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.bundle':
1) Target 'Parse-Parse' has create directory command with output '<removed>/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.bundle'
2) Target 'Parse.default-FacebookUtils-Parse' has create directory command with output '<removed>/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.bundle'

Parse and Parse/FacebookUtils are version 1.18.0.

Interesting. I'll take a look.

I've been able to work around this by following these steps while arciving.

1. Rename the product name from Parse to anything else in Pods project Parse.default-FacebookUtils-Parse target
2. Change Parse.bundle to that new name in AppName project's AppName target's [CP] Copy Pods Resources Input Files
3. Delete ALL Output files right below
4. Change "Parse.bundle" in Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-AppName/Pods-AppName-resources.sh to the new name.

With Xcode 12 beta I am getting "multiple commands produce" errors for bolts and FacebookUtils.

@Kiplol could you explain how you fixed this error? I get warnings in the simulator but error when trying to archive. Any help would be appreciated. thanks!

[bcbeta]

Removing use_frameworks! from the Podfile and then changing the product name as you suggested allowed me to build.

Can you confirm whether you still need to take these steps using the current code on master?

[bcbeta]

Yes, this was happening with the master as of two days ago.

[drdaz]

@bcbeta I merged a couple of PRs to master yesterday. I did some work with build ambiguities in there, so I'd be interested to hear if it's still the case 🙂

I see this error only during Archiving. Is anyone also facing this issue?

Error while Archiving

Warning

I see this compiler warning.

Multiple targets match implicit dependency for linker flags '-framework Parse'. Consider adding an explicit dependency on the intended target to resolve this ambiguity. (in target 'My App' from project 'MyApp')

And many warning under Parse.default-UI

duplicate output file '/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-gzgwdoovsnudgranphnqjcrcijbi/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/My App/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.framework/PrivateHeaders/PFDefaultACLController.h' on task: CpHeader /Users/me/Documents/Xcode/MyApp_Xcode/Pods/Parse/Parse/Parse/Internal/ACL/DefaultACLController/PFDefaultACLController.h /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-gzgwdoovsnudgranphnqjcrcijbi/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/My App/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.framework/PrivateHeaders/PFDefaultACLController.h

Environment and settings

Using using Xcode 11.5 and cocoapod version 1.9.1. Podfile as follows

platform :ios, '9.0'
use_frameworks!

target 'My App' do
  pod 'Parse', '1.18.0'
  pod 'Parse/UI', '1.18.0'
end

target 'My App Test' do
  pod 'Parse', '1.18.0'
end

Workaround

The archiving error is gone when I remove the target 'My App Test'. I think the inclusion of pod 'Parse', '1.18.0' into 2 target cause this issue.

I am still getting the multiple commands error with the most recent master.

I am confused because the error is occurring in the widget extension target, but this target does not use the facebookutils framework. Podfile is below- ` platform :ios, '12.0' use_modular_headers!

def parse_utilities pod 'Parse/UI', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master' pod 'Parse/FacebookUtils', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master' end

def parse_framework pod 'Parse', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master' end

target 'BackcountrySkiTracker' do parse_framework parse_utilities pod 'INTULocationManager' pod 'DKImagePickerController' pod 'UIImageView-Letters' end

target 'BCWeatherWidgetExtension' do parse_framework

end`

target 'BCWeatherWidgetExtension' do parse_framework

end`

Could you try this and see if it works?

platform :ios, '12.0'
use_modular_headers!

def parse_utilities
pod 'Parse/UI', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master'
pod 'Parse/FacebookUtils', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master'
pod 'Parse', :git => 'https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX.git', :branch => 'master'
end

target 'BackcountrySkiTracker' do
parse_utilities
pod 'INTULocationManager'
pod 'DKImagePickerController'
pod 'UIImageView-Letters'
end

target 'BCWeatherWidgetExtension' do
parse_utilities
end

I can't install the FBSDK in the extension because sharedApplication is not available for that target-

I see this error only during Archiving. Is anyone also facing this issue?

Mine is present only during archiving as well.

[benpackard]

Is it possible this issue is related to https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/8206? Is everyone reporting this issue using multiple targets in their pod file (e.g. an app extension)?

[Kiplol]

@benpackard , yes, I have multiple targets, extensions, and use the Parse/FacebookUtils subspec.

[benpackard]

Anyone have any thoughts on what is required to fix this? Or even what kind of expertise is needed? As I understand it, it is currently not possible to archive an app that uses Parse and has any other target, such as a Widget.

I think we can be slightly narrower though - a project that only uses the Parse SDK itself archives ok. It's the use of any submodule that causes issues.

For example, this will archive:

use_frameworks!
inhibit_all_warnings!

target "ParseWidgetTest" do
	platform :ios, '11.0'
	pod 'Parse', '1.19.0'
end

target "CoolWidgetExtension" do
	platform :ios, '11.0'
	pod 'Parse', '1.19.0'
end

But this will not:

use_frameworks!
inhibit_all_warnings!

target "ParseWidgetTest" do
	platform :ios, '11.0'
	pod 'Parse', '1.19.0'
	pod 'Parse/UI', '1.19.0'  # <-----
end

target "CoolWidgetExtension" do
	platform :ios, '11.0'
	pod 'Parse', '1.19.0'
end

The errors are the same as those reported earlier.

[bcbeta]

I was able to get my project to archive using these instructions https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX/issues/1505#issuecomment-632820475, but I do not know enough about cocoapods or frameworks to come up with a more permanent fix.

[benpackard]

I wonder if this is a cocoapods issue or something on our Parse pod side. Most of the fixes for this issue for other projects don't work here, and we have to resort to the fix mentioned by @bcbeta. Maybe someone with more knowledge will be able to help.

[Kiplol]

While this workaround still works for me, it removes the ability to use use_frameworks!. Has anyone figured out a different workaround?

[Kiplol]

Hi, I'm still having this issue on Xcode 12.5, cocoa pods 1.10.1, Parse/Core and Parse/FacebookUtils 1.19.2.

`error: Multiple commands produce '/Users/runner/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/-cifziqnafebkbeeykfagqbprxptp/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates//IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/Parse.bundle':

[benpackard]

Just a note to confirm that this is still an issue using Xcode 13.3.1, cocoapods 1.11.2, and Parse SDK 1.19.3
