Pods.framework in red, doesn't exist in DerivedData

Question

I am trying to using Cocoapods 0.39.0 for the dependencies of my project. I have followed the steps, but I end up with a red Pods.framework in my project. If I look at the path where XCode 7.2.1 says it should be, it doesn't exist:

/Users/ajmas/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/myproject-cskuurnzjrcpcxfoyaceaeepshgt/Build/Products/Debug/Pods.framework

I have looked around at other entries in Stackoverflow, but I am not find anything indicating how the framework should be generated.

The contents of my Podfile are:

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'

target 'myproject' do
    platform :osx, '10.11'
    use_frameworks!

    pod 'Alamofire', '~> 3.0'
end

Any ideas?

Edit, also tried with Cocoapods 1.0.0.beta and no change, even after updating the Podfile to confirm to 'target' being a requirement now.

Answer 1

If this happens it's most likely because you are using <your_project>.xcproject. When you run pod install CocoaPods creates a <your_project.xcworkspace file that you need to use to have dependencies installed via CocoaPods be available when compiling.

Build your project with "Generic iOS Device" selected.
