When I type on terminal like this :

sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods

It show me error like this :

Building native extensions. This could take a while...

ERROR: Error installing cocoapods: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

To see why this extension failed to compile, please check the mkmf.log which can be found here:

/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.6.0/extensions/universal-darwin-19/2.6.0/ffi-1.13.1/mkmf.log

extconf failed, exit code 1

Gem files will remain installed in /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.6.0/gems/ffi-1.13.1 for inspection. Results logged to /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.6.0/extensions/universal-darwin-19/2.6.0/ffi-1.13.1/gem_make.out

After that I tried to type :

pod setup --verbose

And it show error like this :

-bash: /usr/local/bin/pod: /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/bin/ruby: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Please help me and give solution to this problem so I can use cocoapods just like before I upgrade to MacOS Catalina 10.15.7

You’re using the system ruby. Bad idea. Install rbenv and take control of your ruby. Also make sure Xcode-select and command line tools are set up correctly. See my biteinteractive.com/how-to-get-started-with-pods for full instructions.matt
@matt, your article is correctSarimin

I recommend using homebrew to install CocoaPods when you get this error.

If you don't yet have it, run:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Then you may install CocoaPods:

brew install cocoapods
