Cocoapods failed to install on mac

I tried installing cocoapods on mac according to the instructions of http://cocoapods.org/ , but got an error as shown below:

$sudo gem install cocoapods

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
bad response Service Unavailable: Back-end server is at capacity 503       (https://api.rubygems.org/api/v1/dependencies?gems=cocoapods)

but sometimes the error message is different.

Try this (Worked for me with OSX 10.10)

  • Open Xcode 6
  • Open Settings
  • Go to the "Locations" tab
  • Change version of command line tools to Xcode 6.0

    $ sudo gem remove cocoapods

  • Install xcodeproj
