Build Failed due to failure to install Cocoapods?

Question

So I am making an App that is using Google Vr and Google Firebase. both work great on Android, but now I am trying to do an iOS build I am getting crazy errors that I cant seem to find any resources about. When I go to build, it gets all the way to "Opening in Xcode" then it dies and gives me 3 errors

 iOS framework addition failed due to a Cocoapods installation failure. This will will likely result in an non-functional Xcode project.
 
 After the failure, "pod repo update" was executed and succeeded. "pod install" was then attempted again, and still failed. This may be due to a broken Cocoapods installation. See: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/troubleshooting.html for potential solutions.

I have tried updating Cocoapods, installing beta. deleting it from the project and cant seem to find a solution. Any help would be appreciated, this ONE thing is holding me past my deadline.

SO looking at line 13 in the first error I got, I tried playing with the Target minimum iOS Version. I tried changing it in Xcode but that was a bad idea. Changed it in Unity and the issue went away. I am getting other issues with the build ATM and don't think they have anything to do with this. So recap when you get this error. in Unity under player Setting, change Target minimum iOS Version to like 8.0 and it will solve the issue

Did you solve this? i have the same problem

Error building Player: iOS framework addition failed due to a Cocoapods installation failure. This will will likely result in an non-functional Xcode project.

After the failure, "pod repo update" was executed and failed. "pod install" was then attempted again, and still failed. This may be due to a broken Cocoapods installation. See: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/troubleshooting.html for potential solutions.

pod install output:

usually its idea is to not ask questions as an answer to a question, I would suggest checking the target $$anonymous$$imum ios. and then reinstall all your plugins, like google-mobile-ads, or any other services you get. I noticed I would get it a lot when installing a google service, like firebase or cardboard, and then run that project on a different computer. So yeah make sure everything is up to date, update your plug ins, and check your target $$anonymous$$imum ios. If the problem still persists please dump your errors in full, as there are a lot of times hidden clues that will point us to the right direction
