I can't run react-native run-android

Question

I'd try to run react-native run-android but it always fails and appears error like this:

JS server already running. Building and installing the app on the device (cd android && ./gradlew installDebug)...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory using BuildScopeServices.createScriptPluginFactory().

  Could not create service of type PluginResolutionStrategyInternal using BuildScopeServices.createPluginResolutionStrategy().

• Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

• Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

BUILD FAILED in 0s Could not install the app on the device, read the error above for details. Make sure you have an Android emulator running or a device connected and have set up your Android development environment: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started.html

Command failed: ./gradlew installDebug

Error: Command failed: ./gradlew installDebug at checkExecSyncError (child_process.js:616:11) at Object.execFileSync (child_process.js:634:13) at runOnAllDevices (/Users/jworotikan/AwesomeProject/node_modules/react-native/local-cli/runAndroid/runAndroid.js:299:19) at buildAndRun (/Users/jworotikan/AwesomeProject/node_modules/react-native/local-cli/runAndroid/runAndroid.js:135:12) at isPackagerRunning.then.result (/Users/jworotikan/AwesomeProject/node_modules/react-native/local-cli/runAndroid/runAndroid.js:65:12) at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:68:7)

Please Help me, how to solve this. I'm Using Mac and running Android Emulator from Android Studio.

Answer 1

As you're using Mac, then it may be a permission error.

try this on your project using a terminal:

chmod 755 android/gradlew && react-native run-android

Answer 2

1. Find the process: run:

   ps aux | grep react-native

2. Kill the process:

   sudo kill -9 14492(pid)

3. Run project

   react-native run-android or react-native run-ios

Note: Watchman reset cache: If the above steps do not work, please

sudo npm start -- --reset-cache
