MDK create client error for iOS after macOS Ventura/ Xcode 14.1 update

[former_member813025]

Hi All

I am facing an issue when creating client for IOS after the macOS was updated to Ventura 13.2.1

Initially I got an error stating:

Build input file cannot be found: '/Users/<username>/Downloads/MDK_SDK_6_1_3_002_Notarized/MDKClient_SDK/SAMRETEST_UX/platforms/ios/build/Debug-iphonesimulator/metadata-x86_64.bin'. Did you forget to declare this file as an output of a script phase or custom build rule which produces it?

I added a folder named metadata-x86_64.bin in the said location and then ran the project in the xcode which gave following error, any idea what need to be done to fix it

KeyError: 'DEPLOYMENT_TARGET_CLANG_FLAG_NAME'

Command Ld failed with a nonzero exit code

Please check the dependency installer. MDK 6.1.x does not support XCode 14. You will want to upgrade your MDK version to a newer version supporting XCode 14. As of this post the latest is MDK 6.3.5 and it does support Ventura/Xcode 14.

Dear Bill

After upgrading the MDK and xcode as per suggestions I tried to create a new client again and it failed with following error. I have attached the MDK dependency installer status here to show that all components including cocoaPods is compatible. What do you think is the reason for failure

Dear Bill

I went through another thread https://answers.sap.com/questions/13447397/issue-building-branded-mdk-ios-client-for-asset-ma.html where it was suggested we downgrade the version of cocoapods to 1.9.1, I tried this and it worked.

Actually the ArcGIS issue is due to the something with that version of ArcGIS. You can downgrade the ArcGIS version as well by editing the extension-MapFramework > Plugin-MapFramework > platforms > ios > Podfile and change the version to '100.13.0'

The strange thing is that this does not affect all users / environments. Good to know that cocoapods downgrade also helped you.
