No signing certificate error when running yarn dev

[s-oram]

Hello,

This is an exciting project! I'd like to attempt a contribution if you're open to it.

I cloned the repo, installed dependencies and ran yarn dev and received an error:

error: No signing certificate "Mac Development" found: No "Mac Development" signing certificate matching team ID "24CMR7378R" with a private key was found. (in target 'macOS' from project 'sol')

Is there a way to resolve this error?

You need to open the project and remove the certs from the signing configuration

[ospfranco]

Also yarn dev will try to build a archived .app file, you won't be able to get that working without certificates, to run in development mode you should run yarn macos

[ospfranco]

Did you manage to get it working?

Thanks for following up @ospfranco.

I got past the signing error by changing the signing certificate to "Sign to run locally".

But run into another error when running yarn macos. The error is unable to open file (in target "macOS" in project "sol") for /Users/shannon/dev/tp/sol/macos/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-macOS/Pods-macOS.debug.xcconfig:1:1:

The full terminal output is:

Any ideas? I'm not sure what to try next. I'm more familiar with web development.

Thanks

did you do a pod install in the macos folder?

Going to close this issue for now, since it is not really an issue with the project itself.
