I am having working React Native application having version 0.38.0, when i have tried to upgrade it to 0.45.1 it is showing following error
java.lang.RuntimeExce
To resolve Unable to load script from assets index.android.bundle - React Native follow below process :
You have to create dir assets manually in your android project or make Directory by Terminal/CMD enter mkdir android/app/src/main/assets
Go at the created Directory if that is successfully created then
run step 3 Command:
react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res
you have your missed files in the folder now you can Run your React Native project npm run android.
