Firebase with Unity causing Linker Error in XCode

Question

I have added Firebase to my Unity project, using the FirebaseMessaging.unitypackage.

It works when I am building and running for Android, but when I am trying to build for iOS, I get the following error in XCode:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture armv7

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I have looked for solutions, but haven't found any so far. I have tried disabling BitCode, only building for one architecture, edited the Linker Flags, checked the Library Search Paths, but haven't had any luck.

Currently, this error makes me unable to build my project for iOS.

I am running Unity 5.5.0f3, XCode 8.2 and Firebase 1.1.0

I've just figured out what the issue for the problem was. My current setup consists of working on the project on my Windows machine, and then using a Mac for building. I found out that the version control software I use (TortoiseSVN), does not automatically include ".a" files, and that resulted in the libApp.a and libMessaging.a not getting transferred to the Mac.

Apparently, you are missing Firebase library. It's not get exported for xcode project from unity. Please check if you have set the plugin import settings for it and select ios platform as well. Please find more information about settings here https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/PluginInspector.html

Otherwise, I would search on the plugin developer site or write their support.

I just doubled-checked, and the plugin import settings for the plugins used for iOS is setup correctly. I have contacted the support for Firebase as well, so I am pretty much just waiting for a solution to show up somewhere :)

I think the problem might be the deployment target. Try set it to ios 9.0 in unity before trying to build ios.

It should probably work with 8.0 also, but not before that i think.

I had this issue and seemed to have gotten through it.

I did not have CocoaPods installed when I first ran the build. Which quietly results in an unbuildable xcode project.

Install CocoaPods, delete the xcode project and build again.

Good luck!
