Unable to install 'cocoapods' gem from rubygems.org (bad response backend read error)
Sometimes ,the default source for gem, https://rubygems.org/
, can't be accessed.
It should be removed by command:
gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/
And then new source should be added:
gem sources -a https://ruby.taobao.org/
Update the cache:
gem sources -u
You can check sources with:
gem sources
Finally , you can install cocoapods
:
sudo gem install cocoapods
Use the below mentioned steps to install Cocoapods in your machine, I solved the same issue with be below mentioned steps
1.Install command line tools using the command
xcode-select --install
2.Install Home brew by
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
3.Install Ruby using homebrew
brew install ruby
4.Check Ruby version
ruby -v
5.Install Ruby
gem source -a http://rubygems.org/
6.gem install cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods
or
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
7.Go to below folder
cd ~/.cocoapods/repos
8.Run the below command
git clone https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git master
9.Go to the directory where Podfile is present and run
pod install
It work for me:
Remove https source by command:
gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/
And then new http source should be added:
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/
Update the cache:
gem sources -u
