Error while building the IOS Native app

Hello,

I'm having this error when generating native app for IOS (for Android is OK):

Anyone has an idea what could be the reason?

Thanks.

Hello Miguel,

Is it possible this app is not yet made compatible with mabs 4.0 ?

That could explain the reason why it succesfully generates for android and not for IOS.

If your platform is up to date you can manually instruct MABS to use the older version.

I think this is because Console Log plugin is not compatible with new build service (at least in older P10 versions), or there are some conflicting version numbers. As Michael said, choosing MABS version is possible, but only from Platform Server 10.0.1005.0 and onwards.

I created another thread to component support for this: https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/45672/console-log-plugin-cocoapods-specs-archive-fail/

Quick workaround to get builds to succeed, is to remove this plugin (and of course, lose some of the debug features).

For mobile applications, javascript console.log can be hijacked in such manner that the log history can be preserved. Only problem with user-space javascript solution is that the load order matters and if not done correctly, there are probably some cases during page transitions where this approach would "skip a beat" (= not log everything). Native side approach for this thing is good because this Console Logs plugin seems to extend platform's native logging functionality, therefore reliably capturing all log entries.

Hi all,

OutSystems recently updated the MABS. The problem with higher IOS versions is fixed now. Maybe your problem is also fixed.
