Command failed: gradlew.bat installDebug

Question

While developing an app I came into following error. I tried downgrading the java version from 11 to 8, but that wasn\'t helpful.

FAILURE: Build failed with          


        

Answer 1

I had this issue myself, it eventually went away after I uninstalled and re-installed android studio and gradle, but a few other things you could try first

1: Setting GRADLE_USER_HOME in environment variables (if on windows)

2: Downgrade to react-native 0.57.0

3: Make sure you have the correct permissions to run the command and access files

4: Make sure your gradle files are synced correctly, and that location of gradle and the android skd are correct within project structure offline mode

5: Check gradle for updates

(Assuming you are using android studio)

Good luck

Answer 2

open your 'settings.grandler' file in the android folder

change the '\' to '/'

save the file

run the command 'react-native run-android

Answer 3

Try running this command inside your project file

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 

after that

cd (path to project/android folder) && gradlew clean && cd .. && react-native run-android

always gradlew clean before run react-native-run-android the above command basically cleans up the gradle and previous builds.

for ENOENT Error Check if $ yarn start works. The metro bundler wasn't able to run on port 8081 for me and I needed to run $ killall node

EDIT:

Also update the gradle-wrapper.properties add

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.2.1-all.zip

remove following code from build.gradle:

task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
   gradleVersion = '5.2.1'
   distributionUrl = distributionUrl.replace("bin", "all")
}

after that

cd (path to project/android folder) && gradlew clean && cd .. && react-native run-android

always gradlew clean before run react-native-run-android the above command basically cleans up the gradle and previous builds.

You're good to go!

How I solved this problem:

First, make sure that I have %java_home% variable set and also %path% has the java sdk included. How to setup Java environment variables

Second, Go to your android folder and run this command:

C:\Projects\myproject\android>gradlew.bat app:installDebug.

Unzipping C:\Users\codeb.gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-4.10.2-all\9fahxiiecdb76a5g3aw9oi8rv\gradle-4.10.2-all.zip to C:\Users\codeb.gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-4.10.2-all\9fahxiiecdb76a5g3aw9oi8rv Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.(ZipFile.java:225) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.(ZipFile.java:155) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.(ZipFile.java:169) at org.gradle.wrapper.Install.unzip(Install.java:215) at org.gradle.wrapper.Install.access$600(Install.java:27) at org.gradle.wrapper.Install$1.call(Install.java:75) at org.gradle.wrapper.Install$1.call(Install.java:48) at org.gradle.wrapper.ExclusiveFileAccessManager.access(ExclusiveFileAccessManager.java:69) at org.gradle.wrapper.Install.createDist(Install.java:48) at org.gradle.wrapper.WrapperExecutor.execute(WrapperExecutor.java:107) at org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain.main(GradleWrapperMain.java:61)

As you can see that my gradle download is corrupt. All you have to do is delete this folder and rerun the command.

C:\Projects\myproject\android>gradlew.bat app:installDebug

Now, you can go back to your react native project and run

react-native run-android

Answer 5

Just run sudo react-native run-android and it will build and install ./gradlew app:installDebug inside android directory for you.

Answer 6

The problem is on file:

nameyourapp/android/local.properties

you have to substitute with the correct path: /Users/nameUser/AppData/Local/Android/sdk
