Unable to find /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation

I'm trying to build the analytics sample using firebase SDK 4.4.2 and I get an error in the log with message:

"Unable to find /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation"

any ideas whats wrong with it? The only thing I've changed in the unity project is adding google-analytics in the AnalyticsDependencies.xml.

extra-google-m2repository Thanks in advance for the help! Regards, Byron

@pronaypeddiraju actually the issue was present in 5.5.0 and was the reason for the reason for upgrade to 5.5.1, but the upgrade did not resolve the issue. I am still struggling to resolve this issue, if there are any logs or otherwise I can provide to help troubleshoot the issue, I'd be happy to provide this.

Just adding a log of the failing Firebase initialisation -

Update: the root cause turned out to be a clash between Firebase and another 3rd-party plugin, which both registered a provider in the AndroidManifest with android:authorities defined as the bundle id. The 3rd-party plugin was assigned a different handle, which resolved the initialisation failure.

[EvilNeru]

We just barely started getting this on our project bring Android development to a halt. Host OS (OSX, Windows, Linux): Windows 10 Unity version: 2017.1.2p3 .NET version (3.5 or 4.6): to the following image Target platform: Android @enghoff Is there anymore insight that you can add to how you solved this and what plugin in particular it was?

[enghoff]

just changed the android:authorities definition for the 3rd party component to ensure the definition was unique and not clashing with Firebase

+1 I am also seeing this issue.

Windows 10, Unity 2018.1.3f1, building using gradle (through Unity), app running on Android Samsung Galaxy S8, running my app (not the quickstart) after adding Firebase-Analytics 5.1.1.

The Failed to initialize the default Firebase App. / InitializationException: Firebase app creation failed. message repeats every time I try to log a custom event.

Also happens with firebase analytics 4.5.2.

I tried upgrading my Android SDK, but it did not help.

Ran the same apk on a Pixel device through Firebase Test Lab, and I see the same thing. Full trace: https://gist.github.com/Crashthatch/2dd569ce435ab0648aa1fc022cc6e206

When I remove firebase from my project, the CoreFoundation message goes away.

I'm out of things to try. I have no idea why Firebase on Android would be looking for an iOS CoreFoundation package. Without access to the firebase source the ball's pretty much in your court...

[stewartmiles]

@Crashthatch have you reproduced this with one of our sample applications?

If you reproduce it with a sample and share it via our support channel we can take a look at what's going on.

[Crashthatch]

I tried to reproduce this with the sample application, and I do get the Unable to find /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation error appearing in logcat, but it seems to function and I am able to send events etc. to Firebase without any problems, leading me to believe it's a red-herring.

If you want to reproduce anyway (to try to remove this confusing error message to avoid future confusion?), you can use this fork: https://github.com/Crashthatch/quickstart-unity (see commit log to see the exact steps I followed). Open and build & run in Unity 2018.1.3f1 (or use built apk in the git repo). Run adb logcat | grep CoreFoundation after running the app on a phone (I used my Samsung Galaxy S8) to see the "error" message. Commit https://github.com/Crashthatch/quickstart-unity/commit/cadfe18a3094a4c0e71a991ecb05d011d7321aa5 (before google-services.json was added or I made any code modifications) also shows the message, before complaining about not being able to find google-services.json / App ID.

The actual problem in my app (stack traces from a few lines below in the logcat above), Default FirebaseApp is not initialized in this process & Failed to initialize the default Firebase App actually seem to happen when I add a dependency on android.arch.lifecycle:extensions:1.1.1 (adding other dependencies is fine). I'll open a separate issue for that.

[enghoff]

Just fyi, I also still see the Unable to find /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation error after the core initialisation issue was resolved; this does not appear to be a critical error

[stewartmiles]

@enghoff & @Crashthatch the CoreFoundation error message is actually intentional. We detect whether we need to apply a workaround for a Unity networking bug on OSX by searching for the presence of this non-existent framework. The error pops up as the pinvoke we use fails, we catch the exception and apply the workaround if it's required. The only reason this code is still in our code base is due to our use of Unity's .NET networking stack in the real-time database, so we've removed the code path in upcoming mobile builds. Once we've finished migration of the RT DB to our native desktop implementation this code will disappear entirely.

[Crashthatch]

Great! Perhaps make it an INFO, or change it to something that looks less like an error (CoreFoundation not found, no need for workaround) or log another message afterwards saying it's benign, if it's going to be a long time before that happens? Although maybe this thread will pop up when future people search and they won't waste as much time as I did.

If the change is imminent, then no need. :)

[stewartmiles]

@Crashthatch the error is thrown by the mono framework so we can't change the log level unfortunately.

[mykidocoder]

Please mention that it's important to KEEP ALL THE IMPORTED FOLDERS UNTOUCHED, by moving any of them will fail in endless ways.. so hardcoded..
