Fastlane "increment_build_number" not working after update Fastlane or xcode...

[mcactive]

Hi!

Just updated both Fastlane and Xcode to the latest version and both increment_build_number and increment_version_number are not working anymore... It doesn't throw an error, it just doesn't update.

The xcode project hasn't been changed at all... The code is pretty straight forward:

increment_build_number build_number: $appJson['version_no'] increment_version_number version_number: $build_number

Complete fastfile:

platform :ios do


    desc "Test!"
    lane :test do

        # This doesn't require any thing, because it is all done in the "Before all lane"
        set_info_plist_value(path: './Roadmap-Info.plist', key: 'CFBundleIdentifier', value: "$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)")

        # Set identifier
        update_app_identifier(
          xcodeproj: 'Roadmap.xcodeproj', # Optional path to xcodeproj, will use the first .xcodeproj if not set
          plist_path: 'Roadmap-Info.plist', # Path to info plist file, relative to xcodeproj
          app_identifier: 'com.demo.test' # The App Identifier
        )

        increment_build_number build_number: '6.1.2'

        increment_version_number version_number: '20160322'
    end

    # After no errors!
    after_all do |lane|

        p "We finished succesfuly!"

    end

    # Error!
    error do |lane, exception|
        puts "We crashed.... Send me an e-mail!"
        # Do something!
    end
end

Environment

fastlane version (fastlane -v): 1.67.0
xcode version: 7.3
Do you use bundler, rbenv or rvm? RVM

Hi @mcactive. Thanks for letting us know. Can you edit to include your fast file?

Follow the template here: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/blob/master/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md

Also, what version of Xcode are you using?

Thanks!

[mcactive]

Hi!

Yeah, I've stripped the Fastfile to exclude all the errors and even the simplest doesn't work. I've edited the post!

Xcode version is the latest, 7.3

@mcactive I found a similar issue from a long time ago about a bug with cocapods. Are you using cocapods? Could you check your project.pbxproj CocoaPods/CocoaPods#613?

[mcactive]

@i2amsam Hi Sam, yes, we are using cocoapods and using the cocoapods action in Fastlane as well.

The file appears to be XML instead of the OpenStep format.. Is there an easy way to fix it?

[i2amsam]

@mcactive does this solution work? CocoaPods/CocoaPods#613 (comment) it seems like a cocapods issue rather than a fastlane issue.

[mcactive]

@i2amsam you're right... Saving something in xcode and running only
cd /Users/mcactive/Documents/Project && agvtool new-version -all 6.1.2
works...

But it's weird if it is a cocoapods issue as it always worked and after updating fastlane and xcode it broke... Should I make an issue at CocoaPods?

[i2amsam]

@mcactive I agree, super weird. I don't see anything in the fastlane release that seems suspicious, and we didn't run into it with an updated xCode, let's see if anyone else reports it.

[mcactive]

@i2amsam updating to the beta version of cocoapods fixed the issue. This also installs "xcodeproj" beta which fixes a bug in Xcode 7.3:

1.0.0.beta.3
@segiddins segiddins released this 29 days ago · 3 commits to master since this release

Bug Fixes

Fix ASCII .xcodeproj serialization with Xcode 7.3.

[vfog]

Ran into the same issue. We're using Cocoapods as well, but it isn't part of our fastlane flow. However, I do have a custom action that use the Xcodeproj gem that is used internally by Cocoapods in order to modify the project to swap out app icons, fonts, etc.

Based on your current finding I would suspect that a change in the xcodeproj structure in Xcode 7.3 has caused an incompatibility with the Xcodeproj gem.

For now I'm working around the issue by having the increment_build_number and increment_version_number actions be executed first in my lane. I had initially tried to get around the issue by running my custom action after those above two actions, but was still running into conflicts. Once I moved the two increment actions above update_project_team, update_info_plist, and update_app_identifier then things begun to work fine.

[kcharwood]

@vfog I think you are exactly right. I'm seeing the same, and not using cocoapods.

[kcharwood]

@mcactive @vfog I've verified updating to xcodeproj 1.0.0 beta 3 fixes this for me. I am not using cocoapods.

Fastlane may need to bump the minimum version of xcodeproj to resolve this.

[sudo] gem update xcodeproj --pre

[kcharwood]

@mcactive I believe this one should be reopened until its resolved.

[mcactive]

Didn't know fastlane also used Xcodeproj gem. Will reopen it until further notice.

[kcharwood]

Look like its defined here.

I think this needs to be bumped to minimum 1.0.0.beta.3

[i2amsam]

@mcactive and @kcharwood Thanks! 👍 I put a comment over in #3945, it appears we won't be able to bump our min version because that would put fastlane in conflict with cocoapods 0.39 which is still working ok for Xcode 7.2 users. Eek. I'd like to close this and track it in the other issue if that sounds right to you folks.

[TKBurner]

@kcharwood I'm closing this issue out so we can track on the other ticket. Thanks for working with us!

[StrangeDays]

You can put the Fastfile in a subdir => Dir_where_xcodeproj/Fastlane/Fastfile

Due other error I have removed increment_build_number, using now a private lane 'update_build_number'
update_build_number sets the build number to the commit count of "master"

  private_lane :update_build_number do 
    build_number = :get_release_build_number
    `agvtool new-version -all #{build_number}`
  end

  private_lane :get_release_build_number do    
    build_number =  `git rev-list --count master..`
    build_number
  end
