I was trying to generate the ipa file to upload it on App Store but unfortunately it failed and says "Encountered error while archiving for device". I also tried Archiving from Xcode but, the Archive failed there too. It is working great in ios simulator (13)

CodePudding user response：

The problem here is that the Podfile that Flutter template creates by default has no specific iOS version set unfortunately.

Do this to fix this problem:

1. in ios/ folder of your project, open the Podfile.
2. At top of Podfile, make sure this line is not commented out and change the iOS version to 12.0.

change from:

#platform :ios, '8.0'

to:

platform :ios, '12.0'

3. Run pod deintegrate in Terminal inside the ios/ folder of your project.

4. Run pod install --repo-update in your ios/ folder

This should do the trick!

If after this you are getting the following error

CocoaPods did not set the base configuration of your project because your project already has a custom config set. In order for CocoaPods integration to work at all, please either set the base configurations of the target

Then you need to open your iOS workspace in Xcode and select your root project on top left, then inside the Info tab, choose your configuration (in this case Debug) and change it to None. After that, do pod install again.
