@MobileStar Have you solved this problem? I've got the same issue. — ianyuhsunlin, Nov 27 '17 at 04:34
@E-Madd suggestion works but not act like as we want. The script runs without any warning or error, but crashes won t be symbolicate. — Magyar Miklós, Dec 30 '17 at 16:23

You need to make some changes in TARGETS -> Build Phases -> Run Scipt

replace upload-sym with upload-sym-util.bash in script

Like below

Happy to help :)

For clarity. This: `FirebaseCrash/upload-sym "${JSON_FILE}"` Changes to: `FirebaseCrash/upload-sym-util.bash "${JSON_FILE}"` – Bennie Mar 13 '18 at 04:35
Worked, build is now working again! Thank you so much – Pelanes Jun 21 '18 at 11:13

I have found how to avoid this issue. Clean project, delete all derived data and close Xcode. And then, please run below command on terminal.

$ rm $HOME/Library/Preferences/com.google.Symbol*

And open your project on Xcode and build again. Sometimes got same issue, but try above steps one or two times again. This will works for you most of time.

Use Firebase Crashlytics instead of Firebase Crash Reporting.

Just a heads-up: when I migrated from Firebase Crash Reporting to Crashlytics, the script at Build Phases -> Run script was NOT removed and kept causing the error for me. So if someone's migrated, check to see if the FirebaseCrash script is still configured. If it is, just removed the line. – rednuht Apr 18 '18 at 21:16
