Hi @dimaosa, looks like it's related to this one. Could you try to update your SDK to the latest version and see if you'll still encounter the issue?

[dimaosa]

Hi @rizafran , I will update to latest SDK and check if we would encounter this issue again, thanks

[ryanwilson]

Any luck @dimaosa?

[dimaosa]

Hi @ryanwilson , we are still receiving crashes in this method, even when we used latest libs, I will provide more details on Monday

[dimaosa]

With following libs versions, we still receive the same crash

  - FirebaseRemoteConfig (4.4.6):
    - FirebaseABTesting (~> 3.1)
    - FirebaseAnalyticsInterop (~> 1.4)
    - FirebaseCore (~> 6.2)
    - FirebaseInstanceID (~> 4.2)
    - GoogleUtilities/Environment (~> 6.2)
    - "GoogleUtilities/NSData+zlib (~> 6.2)"
    - Protobuf (>= 3.9.2, ~> 3.9)

[dmandar]

Hi, this code has been updated in #4745 . Please retest in the next release and reopen if still an issue.

[dimaosa]

Thanks @dmandar , I will wait for the next release

[paulb777]

@dmandar Added M64 tag to indicate release version. Reopening until #4745 merges.

I am still facing this issues. I am on version 4.4.7. Tried updating pods a dozen times.

@Nac11 are you able to reproduce the crash consistently?

[Nac11]

@Nac11 are you able to reproduce the crash consistently?

@morganchen12 Yes. This crash occurs when both of these things happen together:

• Opening the app from universal links or push notifications (basically deeplinking).
• The minimum refresh interval the Remote config has expired.

I have noticed that during these deeplink scenarios, the fetchAndActivate method of my code is called twice in quick succession. (which is a bug in my app and I have resolved it.)
But regardless, my concern is that Remote config could give me an error in such cases if something is wrong and not crash.

I am able to reproduce this crash consistently. Will be happy to share you more logs if that is helpful.

[morganchen12]

Can you share the app that's crashing (or a separate sample app that also crashes)? The stack trace you posted is slightly different from the original issue, so having a repro to figure out the root cause of the crash would be very helpful.

Hey @dimaosa. We need more information to resolve this issue but there hasn't been an update in 7 weekdays. I'm marking the issue as stale and if there are no new updates in the next 3 days I will close it automatically.

If you have more information that will help us get to the bottom of this, just add a comment!

[google-oss-bot]

Since there haven't been any recent updates here, I am going to close this issue.

@dimaosa if you're still experiencing this problem and want to continue the discussion just leave a comment here and we are happy to re-open this.
