This feels like a bug that we want to investigate on. cc @cipolleschi

jforaker · 2023-04-19T20:17:45Z

Came here to say the same. This is problematic in CI.

Updating from 0.71.6 to 0.71.7 here's what we did:

yarn upgrade [email protected] --exact
npx pod-install

...no mention of hermes-engine

Then in CI we have a couple steps before a Fastlane build:

    - cd ios
    - gem install bundler
    - bundle install
    - gem install cocoapods
    - pod install --repo-update

Yet this error occurs:


 CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "hermes-engine":
  In snapshot (Podfile.lock):
    hermes-engine (from `../node_modules/react-native/sdks/hermes-engine/hermes-engine.podspec`)
  In Podfile:
    hermes-engine (from `../node_modules/react-native/sdks/hermes-engine/hermes-engine.podspec`)
It seems like you've changed the version of the dependency `hermes-engine` and it differs from the version stored in `Pods/Local Podspecs`.
You should run `pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update` to apply changes made locally.

To resolve, we had to run pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update locally and then push the Podfile.lock changes

cipolleschi · 2023-04-23T17:16:20Z

Hi @jforaker, thanks for posting this.

A quick question to understand better: when you run

yarn upgrade [email protected] --exact
npx pod-install

Was the app working? did this update the Podfile.lock?

Because, if that's the case, perhaps you missed to update the Podfile.lock.

Also, I see that you install bundler, but you are running all the commands without bundle exec, which, basically, is ignoring bundler completely. Is this done on purpose?

jforaker · 2023-04-23T20:15:21Z

Was the app working? did this update the Podfile.lock?

Yes it was working. Everything except the Hermes portion got updated in Podfile.lock

@cipolleschi - not on purpose, I will revisit my CI steps as it’s been a long time since that was written.

cipolleschi · 2023-04-27T12:41:12Z

Hi there, Sorry for the late answer.

Yes it was working. Everything except the Hermes portion got updated in Podfile.lock

Well, then it means that pod install is actually updating Hermes and that the Podfile.lock should be pushed to CI, no?
Isn't that expected that CI will fail if there is a file that is outdated? 🤔

mikeswann · 2023-04-27T13:21:16Z

Hi, I can confirm this issue when upgrading from 0.71.2 to 0.71.7.
After upgrading with react-native upgrade, the build locally succeeds, with the Pod lockfile still showing hermes-engine 0.71.2.
Building in CI pipeline without installed dependencies then fails.
deleting Gemfile.lock and Podfile. lock as well as the pods and vendors folder, then running:
bundle install -> bundle exec pod install
updated the hermes pod to 0.71.7 in the lock file successfully.

Kind Regards

@cipolleschi when run pod install --project-directory ios or npx pod-install after RN version changing
it's updating all RN related pods except Hermes engine :(

and when I do cd ios; pod install; on CI or locally it fail with the next error:

 CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "hermes-engine":
  In snapshot (Podfile.lock):
    hermes-engine (from `../node_modules/react-native/sdks/hermes-engine/hermes-engine.podspec`)

It seems like you've changed the version of the dependency `hermes-engine` and it differs from the version stored in `Pods/Local Podspecs`.
You should run `pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update` to apply changes made locally.

and when you check Podfile.lock

  - FBReactNativeSpec (0.71.6): // the same that I have in package.json !!!
  - hermes-engine (0.71.5) // <-- OLD VERSION

cipolleschi · 2023-04-28T11:16:59Z

@retyui @kerembalcan Thank you for the detailed log.

I hope to find some time to look into that. Probably, it could be reproduced easily by creating an app with 0.71.6 and upgrading it to 0.71.7.

What do you guys usually do when updating a patch of an app?
Just run npx react-native upgrade and then yarn and pod install?

retyui · 2023-04-28T11:23:01Z

What do you guys usually do when updating a patch of an app?

I do yarn install then pod install that's it.

P.S. npx react-native upgrade didn't work for me, I manually apply required changes

mikeswann · 2023-04-28T12:25:38Z

@cipolleschi
Im using different machines cause of mac so on win, npx react-native upgrade, commit that,
then on mac: npm install, bundle install, cd ios && bundle exec pod install.
dont quote me on the bundle install, i might have used just pod install.
Interestingly, local mac build succeeded. However, in CI without cached pods or gems, the issue appears.
Hope this helps.

cipolleschi · 2023-04-28T12:28:26Z

I just run a quick test:

rn init TestHermesUpgrade --version 0.71.6  --skip-install
cd TestHermesUpgrade
yarn
cd ios
pod install
cd ..
git init && git add -A && git commit -m "initial commit"

Then, I opened the package.json and bumped the version of React Native:

	},
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "18.2.0",
-    "react-native": "0.71.6"
+    "react-native": "0.71.7"
  },

Then run again:

yarn
cd ios
pod install

And this is my git status output.

But effectively, the hermes-engine entry in the Podfile.lock has not changed... 🤔

cipolleschi · 2023-04-28T12:46:39Z

I think I found the problem. Here, we are defining that the hermes-engine pod must be installed using the specific podspec that is found at this path. However, it seems that with that option, Cocoapods is not able to determine whether the version changes.

Instead, by using :path, as the other local pods, and then doing pod install, it seems that the Podfile.lock properly shows the hermes versions:

I'm setting up a PR to address this.

thomasender · 2023-05-11T12:00:02Z

so, is there a fixed release yet? Running into the same issue here after updating to 0.71.7

cipolleschi · 2023-05-11T14:16:34Z

There is a fix for 0.72, but we couldn't backport it to 0.71, unfortunately. :(

This is the fix: 8de71e5

dylmye · 2023-05-16T11:19:33Z

Thanks for sharing the fix! Considering that 0.72 isn't production-ready yet, what is the remedy in the meanwhile?
Thank you in advance!

cipolleschi · 2023-05-21T17:19:31Z

The remedy so far would be to run pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update and push the updated podfile.lock, or to add a step in CI that run pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update if the previous pod install failed.

We are looking into backporting the fix also to 0.70 and 0.71 at least, but we don't have a patch release scheduled yet for those versions, unfortunately.

retyui · 2023-06-30T15:40:23Z

fixed

prateekuttreja2020 · 2023-07-03T10:14:15Z

fixed

is it fixed in 0.72... any update ?

cipolleschi · 2023-07-03T10:28:24Z

Yes 8de71e5 has been shipped to 0.72.

dylmye · 2023-07-11T13:46:27Z

This is still an issue I encountered when upgrading to 0.72.1 and 0.72.2 🙃

cipolleschi · 2023-07-20T12:06:40Z

That's expected. hermes-engine didn't changed between 0.71.2 and 0.72.2.
So, the :tag specified here is not changed and cocoapods keeps the old version as the two engines are the same.

Are you encountering issues while working on the app?

dylmye · 2023-07-20T15:18:11Z

So every upgrade we will need to run pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update unless there is a new version of hermes-engine released? That seems clunky + should be documented properly if so, in my opinion.

No, this should not happen! thank you for signalling this. I'll put it in my queue and I hope to find a solution before the next release.

dylmye · 2023-07-21T10:46:36Z

Apologies if it came off as rude, I thought you meant more if it was affecting any other part of the development workflow. Thanks for looking into it :)

coofzilla · 2023-09-26T21:46:35Z

I experienced this from 0.71.8-> 0.72.5. The previously solution of pod update hermes-engine --no-repo-update worked for me.

elliottkember · 2023-10-14T15:08:46Z

I'm seeing it, too – am I correct in understanding that the fix in 0.72 will resolve this when updating from 0.72 to future versions? If so, thank you!

pratt3351 · 2023-12-12T12:22:23Z

I'm facing this issue in react-native in version 0.72.7
when i run build on circle ci, this error occurs

any updates..?

pratt3351 · 2023-12-18T14:22:40Z

in my case, in circle ci remain cache data.

i just run cache clean and build, it's fixed

marksyzm · 2024-01-29T00:34:36Z

I've been going around in circles with this and not been able to install Hermes Engine at all - does anyone have something like this going on? It keeps finding another copy of hermes and refusing to carry on:

This is a known issue that manifested earlier today because Cocoapods released version 1.15 which is breaking. Please refer to #42698 for updates.
We are working on it.

The workaround for the time being is to downgrade to Cocoapods 1.14.
