unable to open configuration settings file

/Users/Saini/Desktop/ChatSecure-iOS/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-ChatSecureCorePods-ChatSecure/Pods-ChatSecureCorePods-ChatSecure.ios_debug.xcconfig:1:1 unable to open configuration settings file

I am getting this issue after successfully install pods. Any solution for this?

I did follow these steps to resolve above issues:

Inside the project root directory

root
|-
|- .xcodeproj
|- .xcworkspace
|- Tests
|- Podfile
|- Podfile.lock
|- Pods
Delete the following files. Ensure you have copied the contents of Podfile.

Podfile
Podfile.lock
Pods Folder
Open your .xcodeproj using Xcode or using terminal command

open .xcodeproj
Inside Xcode, locate the "Pods" folder which should contain something along the lines of...

Pods
|- Pods-.debug.xconfig
|- Pods-.release.xconfig
Delete those references and select "move to trash" when prompted.

Close Xcode

Now run the following:

pod init && pod install
Open your Podfile and paste in your previously copied old Podfile that was deleted earlier.

run the following command:

pod install
In terminal open Xcode again with the following command

open .xcworkspace
Note: that I opened the xcworkspace file NOT the xcodeproj file.

At this point for me I was able to compile my code as normal without having to change back to the Legacy Build System.
