Cocoapods error when Initializing react-native app on Mac mini (Apple M1, 2020) running Monterey

Time:05-27

I'm on a Mac mini with Monterey OS trying to init a react-native app.

npx react-native init AwesomeProject 

gives me:

✔ Downloading template
✔ Copying template
✔ Processing template
✖ Installing CocoaPods dependencies (this may take a few minutes)
✖ Installing CocoaPods dependencies (this may take a few minutes)
error Error: Failed to install CocoaPods dependencies for iOS project, which is required by this template.
Please try again manually: "cd ./AwesomeProject/ios && pod install".
CocoaPods documentation: https://cocoapods.org/

when I try

cd ./AwesomeProject/ios && pod install

I get:

  664 /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.6.0/gems/ffi-1.15.5/lib/ffi/ffi.rb
  665 /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.6.0/gems/ffi-1.15.5/lib/ffi.rb

zsh: abort      pod install

Is anyone else encountering the same problem?

EDIT:

Uninstalled and re-installed Ruby and Cocoapods.

This was a helpful post

and used:

arch -x86_64 pod install

CodePudding user response:

Using that processor does bring some issues with installing pods. Please try arch -x86_64 pod install and see what it brings. Link to some older post: React Native ios builds failing suddenly
