When I try to build for production this error comes up

Question

When I try to build for production, this error comes up. I'm using React Native Firebase. This error happens on android.

Here is the error

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':react-native-firebase_app:generateReleaseRFile'.

           }
           forRepository {

Answer 3

You can check this link to know what exactly the problem is: No matching variant of com.facebook.react:react-native:0.71.0-rc.0 was found

Solution 1:

Just update your react native version to 0.71 and npm install.

Solution 2:

I was using react native version 0.69.4 and this code helped me to fix it by adding into my android/build.gradle file.

allprojects {
repositories {
    google()

     exclusiveContent {
       filter {
           includeGroup "com.facebook.react"
       }
       forRepository {
           maven {
               url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
           }
       }
   }
   
   }

Hope this helps you and anyone going through this problem.

i am using 0.71, i upgraded from 0.60, but this error is still there for android when i am running react-native run-android! Any suggestions ? – Guru

if you are using a react native version lower than 0.63, you need to fix it manually please refer to this link to see how to fix it. github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/… – Flown

Answer 5

Make sure that your react-native version in your app/build.gradle matches your version in the package.json:

app/build.gradle

implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:0.70.+"

package.json

"react-native": "0.70.5"

this works for me

Answer 6

as the first answer said it's issue in maven central and react-native resolved that here https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/35210.... in package.json file update react-native by replace this line

 "react-native": "0.70.5"

then npm install
