Xcode 8: Symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64 for pods

Question

After updating to Xcode 8, the app won't run on devices, only on the simulator. The errors are thrown for all pods added to the project:

Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

For each of the files, this warning is also thrown:

file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (arm64)

Active architectures are OK, I've tried deleting derived data folder, reinstalling the pods, setting Build Active Architectures Only to YES and NO, but nothing works.

My Podfile looks like this:

platform :ios, '8.0'
workspace 'Purple'
target 'Purple' do
pod 'AFNetworking', '2.6.3'
pod 'SAMKeychain', '~> 1.3'
pod 'TSMessages'
pod 'Facebook-iOS-SDK', '~> 3.23.2'
pod 'SWTableViewCell'
pod 'CardIO'
pod 'Parse'
pod 'PureLayout'
pod 'Branch'
pod 'DZNEmptyDataSet'
end

Solution 1

Try clear the XCode caches:

rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/

Clear the CocoaPods caches and reinstall the dependencies:

rm -rf "${HOME}/Library/Caches/CocoaPods"
rm -rf "`pwd`/Pods/"
pod update

Finally go to the "Pods" project and set the Build Active Architectures Only to No also for the "Debug" configuration.

Solution 2

"The OPN [Debug] target overrides the OTHER_LDFLAGS build setting". This was the main issue. After adding $(inherited) in new line in other linker flags solved my issue.
