Answer 1

With React 0.32~0.37: The problem is most likely that you are using React 15.4.x instead of 15.3.x. One of the changes between 15.3 and 15.4 was that many of the modules under react/lib were moved to react-dom/lib, which is why the packager can't find react/lib/ReactUpdates.

Ensure that your package.json file locks React to 15.3.x:

"dependencies": {
  "react": "~15.3.2"
}

Then delete your node_modules folder and run yarn or npm install again. Verify that you installed React 15.3.x:

$ npm ls react
app@1.0.0 /code/app
└── react@15.3.2

Last, restart the React Native server and load your bundle again.

This has been fixed!

Update your dependencies and use react-native ^0.38.0 or newer.

Run react-native upgrade after all react-native version upgrades.
