Command 'carthage bootstrap --platform iOS\,tvOS' exited with code 1

Could not install WDA on simulator/real device, because carthage bootstrap command throw error

I haven’t dive in source code but I think that error maybe come from new appium-webdriveragent repo

Thank you guys.

I gotta reclaim write permission in node_modules directory again. Everything works as expected.

sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/lib

Allow root argument when install appium seems like not work at all.

npm install -g appium --unsafe-perm=true --allow-root

Updated: (Oct 10 2019) Remove Appium from your computer and re-install to solve problem.

npm uninstall -g appium

I had two versions of carthage installed that was causing this issue. One was with homebrew the other with npm. There was a global node_modules version and then also the one in the carthage app folder.

npm uninstall carthage
brew uninstall carthage
brew install carthage

brew link --overwrite carthage

Hopefully that will help!
