Uninstall xcode and install it again. I believe I had similar issues with xcode after migrating a intel macbook to m1. Don't think it's a flutter issue.

After you re-install XCode. Try to open the project and do a product > archive directly from xcode once.

huycozy · 2024-01-02T10:27:40Z

@bryonnicoson Can you please share the entire output of flutter build ipa -v?

Also, this looks similar to #139500, please check #139500 (comment) to see if it helps.

I think you need to have Rosetta installed.

@stuartmorgan @zanderso do you know what is the story with build artifacts for ARM Macs? I thought we have disentangled ourselves from Rosetta, but it does not seem to be the case:

$ file bin/cache/artifacts/engine/ios-release/gen_snapshot_arm64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/ios-release/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
$ find bin/cache/artifacts -iname 'gen_snapshot*' -exec file '{}' ';'
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-arm-release/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/ios-profile/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-profile/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-profile/gen_snapshot_x64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-profile/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot_x64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-x64-profile/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-arm64-release/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/ios/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-arm64-profile/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-x64-release/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/ios-release/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-release/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-release/gen_snapshot_x64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64-release/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
bin/cache/artifacts/engine/android-arm-profile/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

I would think that we should only use ARM64 binaries on ARM Macs and not expect users to have Rosetta installed. I also find it puzzling that we have some duplication:

$ bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot_arm64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
$ bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot_x64: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
$ bin/cache/artifacts/engine/darwin-x64/gen_snapshot: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64

Why do we have 3 gen_shapshot, 2 of which are using the same host arch (which is also wrong for the current host)?

zanderso · 2024-01-03T16:42:50Z

Is it possible to build gen_snapshot for arm64 such that it can generate x64 snapshots? If so, then that has not yet been integrated into the Flutter Engine build.

jmagman · 2024-01-03T19:46:31Z

@bryonnicoson 1. Do you know if you installed Rosetta? 2. Can you run build ipa again with the --verbose flag and attach the output? It's large.

If Rosetta isn't installed the doctor should be complaining that gen_snapshot_arm64 can't be run. #114558

flutter/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/doctor.dart

Line 596 in 0d378ed

    
           if (_fileSystem.file(genSnapshotPath).existsSync() && !_genSnapshotRuns(genSnapshotPath)) {

flutter/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/doctor.dart

Lines 601 to 604 in 0d378ed

    
           } else if (_platform.isMacOS && _operatingSystemUtils.hostPlatform == HostPlatform.darwin_arm64) { 
        
             buffer.writeln('Flutter requires the Rosetta translation environment on ARM Macs. Try running:'); 
        
             buffer.writeln('  sudo softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license'); 
        
           }

do you know what is the story with build artifacts for ARM Macs?

@cbracken has been working on parts of it #103386 and #101138

Tooling bits #69157 blocked on infra #121178

@zanderso I believe that was done awhile ago dart-lang/sdk#49768 and dart-lang/sdk@4f7bb16

Without additional information, we are unfortunately not sure how to resolve this issue. We are therefore reluctantly going to close this bug for now.
If you find this problem please file a new issue with the same description, what happens, logs and the output of 'flutter doctor -v'. All system setups can be slightly different so it's always better to open new issues and reference the related ones.
Thanks for your contribution.
