Trying to install CocoaPods from the terminal:

$ sudo gem install cocoapods

After entering my root password, nothing happens.

How can I debug that?

Ruby Solutions

Solution 1 - Ruby

For others wondering the same, installing the gem takes forever. If you run:

export GEM_HOME=~/.gems
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH

gem install cocoapods -V

Installing with flag V enables verbose output which will let you see all the output as it is going through the download and install, it's quite a lot.

Solution 2 - Ruby

update gem to the newest release using

sudo gem update --system and it should work a bit faster

Solution 3 - Ruby

I had to wait at least 5 minutes before:

Solution 4 - Ruby

You should do it in two separated commands:

First:

gem update

Then:

export GEM_HOME=~/.gems
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH

gem install cocoapods

Solution 6 - Ruby

Try Installing latest Git version from

https://git-scm.com/downloads

This worked for me

Write the following commands in Terminal:

  1. export GEM_HOME=~/.gems
  2. export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH
  3. gem install cocoapods
  4. Set the path of the project with the command cd path/to/project
  5. pod init
  6. Open podfile
  7. Add appropriate pod
  8. pod install
