Can't Build project on iOS 15, throws "RCT_ENABLE_INSPECTOR needs to be set to fulfill RCT_REMOTE_PROFILE"

[gaurav-vij]

We facing a strange issue in latest react-native 0.79 and firebase.

a. if we remove use_frameworks! :linkage => :static, we get FirebaseAuth not found error.
b. If we add "use_frameworks! :linkage => :static", we get "RCT_ENABLE_INSPECTOR needs to be set to fulfill RCT_REMOTE_PROFILE"
c. if we enable that in Podfile, we get "'RCTDevLoadingViewProtocol.h' file not found".

Please share the solution. seems use_frameworks is not working. if we remove that, Firebase is not working.

Our POD File is provided below.

Hey there, I would encourage you to check out this demo that shows a working example of a React Native Firebase project using React Native 0.79: https://github.com/mikehardy/rnfbdemo

[AsurNikul]

@MichaelVerdon Can you please try with older version

"react-native": "0.78.0",

"@react-native-firebase/app": "^21.12.0",
"@react-native-firebase/messaging": "^21.12.0",

[mikehardy]

@AsurNikul that won't be fruitful, two reasons: use current, because that's the future, right? And we demonstrate it.

However, and most importantly, everything ran fine with the older versions too, you can see as I note them in the commit log of the build demonstrator which works

https://github.com/mikehardy/rnfbdemo/commits/main/make-demo.sh

Asking us to try things is not how to resolve this. We ask you to try something we know works to prove to you it works. I don't see evidence you've done any of that work. But if you try what we pointed you to - you'll see that it works then. At which point your path to resolving your project-specific problem is to compare the thing we pointed you to that works with your project, and eliminating the difference

[AsurNikul]

@mikehardy Thank you for the clarification and for pointing me to the working example. I really appreciate the guidance

[mikehardy]

I'm going to close this as there is no reproduction - however we provide a reproduction that works

Additionally, the issue template wasn't used so there is inadequate information to troubleshoot - as a general rule: if you want help in an open source repo you should never delete the template for the issue instead of filling it out, it won't lead to getting help in most cases

If a minimal viable reproduction can show there is a build problem open a fresh issue with version information etc and that reproduction and we'll investigate it + get it fixed
