For local debug did you follow this guide [How to debug your build locally / "It works on my Mac/PC but not on bitrise.io"](http://discuss.bitrise.io/t/how-to-debug-your-build-locally-it-works-on-my-mac-pc-but-not-on-bitrise-io/392) ?

It’s quite important to start with a clean git clone - most of these issues are not related to bitrise at all, instead related to something not under version control, or a dependency which’s version is not locked in your project and your local dependency version is not the same what [bitrise.io](http://bitrise.io) gets when it runs the dependency manager (e.g. npm install / pod install / …) to get your project’s dependencies.
