Xcode 11 GM Seed 2 Released

Announcements
, , , ,
1

We have released an Xcode 11 GM Seed 2 image today. You can select the image by adding the following to a job in config.yml :

macos:
  xcode: 11.0.0

The only change from the Xcode 11 GM Seed 1 image is the version of Xcode:

  • Xcode is now version 11.0 GM Seed 2 Version 11A420a

Minor changes:

  • Fastlane 2.130.0 => 2.131.0

The full manifest of the installed software and SDKs is available here.

Known issues

  • There is an issue where a dialog appears for the first 30 seconds after the image boots reporting that the OS did not shut down cleanly on the last boot. This might impact UI tests. We pre-boot VMs so that builds can start as quickly as possible, so in many cases our VMs have been booted more than 30 seconds prior before to build running, which will reduce the rate of occurrence of this bug.

Upcoming deprecations / changes

Help Please! Plans for the next image:

Iā€™m going to start work on a new Xcode 11 image today, with which I hope to address some common requests. I hope to release this by the end of the week.

I will release a new image with Xcode GM Seed 2 unless Apple released another version in the mean time. Things I want to include:

Please let me know what changes you would like made to the image,.

Thanks,

Marc

Iā€™m not seeing the manifest at the URL you linked to, only something like

<Error>

Oops, I had an extra / in the URL. Fixed now - https://circle-macos-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/image-manifest/v1158/index.html

Just to be sure, the current deployed image still has issues with " Ruby headers" right?
Iā€™m seeing issues while installing ruby gems that have native extensions.

The same job works fine on an xcode 10 macos image.

I have the same issue. I think it should be addressed in the next image.

In the meantime, Iā€™m using a workflow with two stepsā€¦ one that installs gems using xcode 10, caches them, and another that just uses the cache. Itā€™s dirty, but it works.

same issue here with bundle install for Xcode 11 builds

Same issue here on the gem installation. Is a new image in development to be released soon @marc? Or should we rely on using a custom ruby version for the time beingā€¦

GM 2 seems to be the same as the release version of Xcode 11.

Thanks for your work here @marc! Just a quick question: any idea when Catalina-based images might land? Iā€™m starting to ship projects that use Combine and other iOS 13 / macOS 15 frameworks, and right now I can only run tests on the iOS Simulator because these frameworks arenā€™t available for macOS destinations yet.

So until there are adults in the room you can update (double) Ruby to latest and use it when installing native extensions.

brew install ruby
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

worked in SSH shell prior to gem calls.

Getting this error soon after updating to XCode 11.

An error occurred while installing json (2.2.0), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install json -v '2.2.0' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'`
succeeds before bundling.

Any ETA for a fix?

Thanks in advance!

- run:
      name: Set up ruby latest version
      command: |
        brew install ruby
        echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

I added , but still not work.

Still having same issueā€¦ Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

@Roykk, @AlexanderPan19920718: you have to make sure the process that depends on ruby knows that it has to use one installed by Homebrew. /usr/local/opt/ruby/bin is the path to that executable. The echo command simply adds it to userā€™s settings and will not take effect until those settings are sourced, for example when the new shell session is opened or if you run source ~/.bash_profile. This is only helpful when you are debugging via SSH. If you want to use it in a pipeline/build step ā€” you need to make sure the $PATH environment variable is already set to (includes) that directory when you run commands that need it. Look at the following documentation for more info on how to change the $PATH context for your commands:

https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/env-vars/#using-bash_env-to-set-environment-variables

For some commands that need ruby you may also be able to specify the --path-to-ruby in an argument to the command itself. Consult full documentation for tools like bundle and gem to see if thatā€™s possible (I suspect it may be, but I donā€™t know).

@ermik , @AlexanderPan19920718 , thanks for the helpā€¦ got it working when i

  - run:
          name: install Ruby and run bundleinstall
          command: |
            brew install ruby
            echo "export PATH=/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH" >> $BASH_ENV
            source $BASH_ENV
            sudo gem install bundler -u -f
            bundle install --path vendor/bundle

So it looks like Apple no longer ship the headers for the system Ruby with Xcode 11. We are building this image the same way as we built the Xcode 10.3 image, which does not exhibit this behaviour. I will build a new image where the version of Ruby is installed from homebrew, and Iā€™ll make this be the default system Ruby.

In the team time, you can do the following to work around the Ruby issue:

version: 2.1
jobs:
  build:
    macos:
      xcode: 11.0.0
    shell: /bin/bash --login -eo pipefail
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run:
          name: Set Ruby Version
          command:  echo "ruby-2.6" > ~/.ruby-version
