I am facing the same issue. iOS build has just suddenly failed. Please advise. Thanks.

I am seeing this same issue as well with building.

5

Same error here. I don’t know what else to do.
I wasted a lot of time until I came here to the forum. The problem happened at the same time I was deleting provisioning profiles and certificates so I thought that was the problem. I even created a new Expo account, but the problem remains.

6

Same problem! I’m on sdk 44, android builds work fine, seems to be only ios.

7

me to i spend 4 hours for this error I don’t know how to fix.

can people please elaborate on this? what command are you running? are you using turtle-cli locally or running expo build?

I have the same problem. I’m building an app through expo build:ios. Everything worked out yesterday. Today I get an error Error: ibtool exited with non-zero code: 255

you can track the status of this incident here: Expo Status - Classic builds with "expo build:ios" are experiencing a high error rate
you may want to consider migrating to EAS Build or using Turtle CLI while we investigate the issue
