ionic serve on iOS 14 device. Error "Invalid Service"

Question

After upgrading an iPhone6s to iOS 14 and Xcode to the latest version, I am unable to serve the app.

The error stack is as following

Error: InvalidService
    at LockdownProtocolReader.parseBody (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/native-run/node_modules/node-ioslib/dist/protocol/lockdown.js:35:19)
    at LockdownProtocolReader.onData (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/native-run/node_modules/node-ioslib/dist/protocol/protocol.js:52:40)
    at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:315:20)

    at TLSSocket.Readable.push (_stream_readable.js:212:10)
    at TLSWrap.onStreamRead (internal/stream_base_commons.js:186:23)

running with --verbose shows the origin of the error

client:lockdownd startService: com.apple.debugserver +898ms
  protocol:lockdown socket write: {"Request":"StartService","Service":"com.apple.debugserver"} +206ms
  protocol:lockdown Response: {"Error":"InvalidService","Request":"StartService","Service":"com.apple.debugserver"} +6ms
  native-run Caught fatal error: Error: InvalidService

my serve script is

ionic cordova run iOS --l --debug --device --address=0.0.0.0 --sourceMap=true

Ionic info:

Ionic:

   Xcode      : Xcode 12.0 Build version 12A7209

what I have tried so far.

• reboot Mac
• reboot iPhone
• make sure latest iOS/Mac/Xcode version is installed
• clean build

running on emulator is working fine btw. I can also perform ionic build and run via Xcode on the device.

我通过将native-run更新为 1.2.1 解决了它（请参阅https://github.com/ionic-team/native-run/issues/60 ，2020 年 9 月在 1.2.0 中添加了对 iOS 14 的支持- 28)：

npm i -g native-run@latest

Answer 2

Try commenting

     if (isLockdownErrorResponse(resp)) {
         throw new Error(resp.Error);
     }

inside the file

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/native-run/node_modules/node-ioslib/dist/lockdown.js

It worked for me

Answer 3

Got the same error while i was using native-run.

So i tried to run it without native-run and used cordova instead with the flag --no-native-run. The command that worked for me:

ionic cordova run ios -l --address=0.0.0.0 --no-native-run

Answer 4

So native-run seems buggy.

But in fact in ionic-cli, you can pass a param to use cordova instead of native-run and it's work :

ionic cordova run ios --no-native-run

My personal command :

ionic cordova run ios --livereload --consolelogs --buildFlag='-UseModernBuildSystem=0'  --external --no-native-run

Answer 5

I am having the same problem. According to this post https://github.com/ios-control/ios-deploy/issues/469 an update to ios-deploy 1.11.2 should solve the problem. I've tried it, multiple times + reinstalling Xcode and other options but nothing works. I am curious if an update to ios-deploy will work for you, so let me know please!

Answer 6

you need to build it with Xcode and then try running ionic cli again For some reason that fixes it for me
