I have several solutions like,
uninstall cocoa pods and reinstalled.
I tried brew update as well
brew update
brew install fastlane
fastlane install_plugins
None of them worked out for me. Still getting above errors.

Answer 1

I changed the Project Format from Xcode 14.0 to Xcode 13.0 and it worked for me.

Answer 2

This may be the issue:
Smart quotes were detected and ignored in your Podfile.
Try to check your Podfile in some text editor like vscode, vim or nano and substitute all the quotes with new ones

Answer 3

I was not able to fix the issue in Xcode beta, tried to change the path sudo xcode-select cocoapods uninstalled and reinstalled, gem installed, brew everything but nothing worked.
Then changed the version Xcode beta 14.0 to Xcode 13.4.
After that tried,
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
then pod deintegrated
pod deintegrate
finally
pod install
then started working...

Answer 4

Change project compatibility to 13.0 - worked for me :)
right here

Answer 5

First run in the terminal of your project
sudo gem update xcodeproj
Then run
pod init

Answer 6

post_install do |installer|
installer.generated_projects.each do |project|
project.targets.each do |target|
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings["DEVELOPMENT_TEAM"] = "Your Team ID"
end
end
end
end

Answer 7

It worked for me for xcode 14 beta.
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer

Answer 8

XCODE 14.2 WITH M1Chip and M2Chip working 100%
I faced a similar issue after 3 to 4 hours tried i found the this soultion , by default system ruby version is being used, we need to bypass it and then continue with cocoa pods.
1.Install ruby using homebrew
brew install ruby
By default, binaries installed by gem will be placed into: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/bin
You may want to add this to your PATH.
ruby is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because macOS already provides this software and installing another version in parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.
If you need to have ruby first in your PATH run (and replace user_name with your username):
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> /Users/user_name/.bash_profile
For compilers to find ruby you may need to set:
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/ruby/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/ruby/include"
Follow the instructions to set PATH. Replace user_name with your username
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> /Users/user_name/.bash_profile
echo 'export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/ruby/lib"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/ruby/include"' >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
Check your path
ruby -v
Then we will get this one in the terminal
ruby 3.1.1p18 (2022-02-18 revision 53f5fc4236) [x86_64-darwin20]
user#MacBook-Air ios % which ruby
/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin/ruby
That's it, ruby version is all set Install cocoa pods then you are good to go
sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods
Later add your project target and pod init
it works fine
