'React/RCTView.h' file not found

I have an ejected app and I am getting the above error.

I ran:

  • npm install
  • react-native link
  • pod install

I tried cleaning the project in XCode.

delete ios/pods folder, then…

sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
sudo gem install cocoapods -v 1.4.0

and then…

pod install

then xcode compile works fine

Hey there, sorry about the trouble. I just pushed a new ExpoKit tag ios/2.4.8 which fixes the CocoaPods issue. So you should be able to use the newer version of CocoaPods now if you want.

I have this issue. Currently I am running: expo 25.0.0 with ExpoKit ios/2.3.3. Can I update ExpoKit without updating to expo 26.x.x?

I have fixed this issue by updating to SDK 26 and ExpoKit ios/2.4.8, then applying this answer Upgrading to SDK 26 - Pod install issue - #10 by michchan
