Run custom shell script '[CP] Embed Pods Frameworks'

Issue

i am maintaining a capacitor ionic project supporting both iOS and android platform. I can build the project locally and run it on a device without any issue. But when archiving the following error pops up:

I am using following pods:

  pod 'Capacitor', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/ios'

  pod 'CapacitorCordova', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/ios'

  pod 'CapacitorApp', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/app'

  pod 'CapacitorBrowser', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/browser'

  pod 'CapacitorHaptics', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/haptics'

  pod 'CapacitorKeyboard', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/keyboard'

  pod 'CapacitorNetwork', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/network'

  pod 'CapacitorPushNotifications', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/push-notifications'

  pod 'CapacitorSplashScreen', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/splash-screen'

  pod 'CapacitorStatusBar', :path => '../../node_modules/@capacitor/status-bar'

  pod 'CordovaPlugins', :path => '../capacitor-cordova-ios-plugins'

  pod 'CordovaPluginsStatic', :path => '../capacitor-cordova-ios-plugins'

I already desintegrated/updated pods in my ios folder. Cleaned the Build folder shift-command-k. Further there's no special chars or whitespaces in my project name and I did renew all my certificates / load them into xcode. Restarting machine does not solve it either.

What I did as well, was checking the option "For install build only" in my Build phases (Targets > App > Build phases) as suggested here

I haven't touched my build files (capacitor.config, package.json, ...) lately

Update:

Executing the command by hand produces following ouput:

/Users/fabus/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/App-gkhellzebxgrxeeuozvkjsnejnul/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/App/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/App.build/Release-iphoneos/App.build/Script-9592DBEFFC6D2A0C8D5DEB22.sh: line 2: /Target Support Files/Pods-App/Pods-App-frameworks.sh: No such file or directory

Solution

Update cocoapods to 1.12.1 which has the fix.

gem update cocoapods, or bundle update cocopods if using bundle, or brew upgrade cocoapods if installed with brew.
