I also has this issue... Did you fixed it?

[zfha]

In China？

1. I used Shadowsocks（proxy software）
2. Set .gitconfig proxy
3. This step need long time. About 10+ minutes.

.gitconifg

[http]
    proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
[https]
    proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1080

[ghost]

yes, in China. I also used the Shadowsocks, but nothing changed. Thanks, I will try to config the git proxy, hope it works.

Same problem here !

[AwaisFayyaz]

Experiencing the same issue. any solution to this ?

[AwaisFayyaz]

This actually takes some time (around 30 minutes) so let this thing install

[notmedia]

Same thing with gRPC-Core (1.28.2)

Update: Waited for 10 minutes and gRPC-Core installed.

[ghasemikasra39]

same here with Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2). Any solution ?

[AlexAlexandre]

same here with Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2). Any solution ?

man, I had the same problem, but reading the comments I saw that just wait a little, here it took about 10 minutes.

[wikramhwt]

I am also facing the same issue and completely lost my whole day on solving this issue i just add these two files in my pod file before these two files everything was working fine

pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Firestore'

every thing goes well but when it comes to this one Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2) it goes stuck kindly help me

[iqbalmineraltown]

I'm also stuck on Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2) Already running for 55 minutes before I canceled it

[OmarUnity]

I resolved it by deleting all the cache related to gRPC at /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/CocoaPods/Pods/Release/ and .../Specs/Release/, and running pod install again.

[ImHamzaAnwer]

did anyone find the solution ?

Solution

It is dowing grpc core and it's submodule and it will take time. The file size is greater than or around 1 GB. So sit back and relax. If you would like to learn more then you can read my article about the same problem and the solution.

This article only discusses the problem and the solution "Why it stuck and how to get rid of this?"

[MuhammadFaizan980]

wait and see is the only logical solution as it is around 1GB

[sultanmyrza]

checkout @nitishk72 article at https://www.nstack.in/blog/grpc-ios-stuck/ worth reading!

My case: flutter, firestore. I did pod install and stuck at gRPC-Core so I cancel it flutter clean and run agian pod install --verbose you still have to wait but at leas you will see whats happening!

My internet connection

DOWNLOAD Mbps 43.90

UPLOAD Mbps 20.87

took me aroud 30 mins

[OrtalPozniak]

I had the same issue, if you run pod install --verbose it still takes a lot of time but you will be able to see the progress.

[mgfjx]

I got this Failed to clone 'third_party/googleapis' a second time, aborting even if use shadowsocks.

I got the same problem, can you tell me how to fix it?

[Shaildodia]

Just wait for little while. For me it took around 8 to 10 minutes to install it.

[Luohuhu]

Just wait for little while. For me it took around 8 to 10 minutes to install it.

for me it took more than an hour so I kill that process

[gurayaharsh]

Same issue. Been waiting for over 30 mins at this point but I guess theres no solution other than waiting.

[mesheilah]

I have faced the same issue, although I have a very fast fiber optic connection (130 mbps download speed), but it took about 5 hours for the gRPC-Core to fully cloned with pod install

[carloliaci]

Bad Network Adapter! Unbelievable, after many days I fixed the gRPC-Core issue! My problem was because of the wired network adapter. I used an Atolla Usb/ethernet apple adapter (Amazon). I switched to wifi connection and I correctly installed all the pods! I will burn the adapter and I will buy an original apple ethernet. I hope that it will help you. :)

[oti-adjei]

It does a long time. Im in Ghana West Africa and it took me almost an hour and half on my m1. Note also though that your internet should be stable and of decent speed

[nihatdinc]

When I read this thread my gRPC-Core has been downloaded, lol. Take a break and just wait.

Installing gRPC-C++ (1.28.2)

Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2)

Actually its a large file so it will take some time in my case it took 45 min with mobile data. so keep patience if you have fast internet definitely it will take less time.

[h-bomb]

Installing gRPC-Core (1.28.2) took over an hour for me, but it did finally finish. I'm in California with about a 50 Mbps download rate.

[allooshcode]

it is absolutely a network issue. please try to get more speed internet.

[CliffLeopard]

It's been five years and there's still no solution?

[mubashardev]

It's been five years and there's still no solution?

The solution is nothing but just waiting for it to get finished. It's about 1GB and let it take time to download and install :)

[ndukayames]

omo

[Fawaz441]

omo

aswear, this thing takes too long.😭

[GwamakaCharles]

whoever created this, thought everyone who will use it works at Google and they'll have 10Gbps of internet speed...

[slagathor2094]

It's been five years and there's still no solution?

It's been five years, and it still hasn't finished downloading on my machine.

[GwamakaCharles]

Turns out this is an internet problem....! You don't really need an extremely fast internet, just 100kb/s will do. You also need some patience...😀

[ildaneta]

The problem is that it's too long and you have to be patience. 😊

我通過刪除所有與 gRPC 相關的緩存來解決它/Users/<user>/Library/Caches/CocoaPods/Pods/Release/。../Specs/Release/，然後pod install再次運行。

After deleted caches, I just run 10min !!!!! Thanks 🥳 (My mac is M1)

[gizemay96]

I resolved it by deleting all the cache related to gRPC at /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/CocoaPods/Pods/Release/ and .../Specs/Release/, and running pod install again.

Thank you so much

[khuznain99]

You may like this: https://github.com/invertase/firestore-ios-sdk-frameworks - a separate package that will cut the need for the gRPC dependency out as a direct dependency and install it pre-compiled for you which saves an incredible amount of time.

[oti-adjei]

Smart solution. With this though does it crosscheck to see versions are compatible with other packages etc. before compiling?

[kelle62819]

Why is this code so bloated? 1GB is ridiculous

[EchoEllet]

In case of flutter open the terminal in the directory of your flutter project, flutter clean then flutter pub get cd to ~/Library/Caches and delete CocoaPods by simply rm -rf CocoaPods/

then cd back to the directory of your flutter project and then cd to the ios project inside it pod install --verbose It's a large file you will have to wait but at least you can see the progress and it shouldn't be stuck forever

[xavit]

Just do a Complete cleanup (pod reset) rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/CocoaPods rm -rf Pods rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/* pod deintegrate pod setup pod install
