I’m trying to build my react-native expo app for Android to test it on an Android emulator/simulator before submitting it to the Play Store. I’m using eas-cli/5.2.0 and node-v19.5.0.
When I run npm run android, I get the following error:
› Building app…
Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
- What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ‘:expo-dev-launcher-gradle-plugin’.
Could not create service of type OutputFilesRepository using ExecutionGradleServices.createOutputFilesRepository().
Failed to create parent directory ‘/Users/a/Desktop/b/b-Frontend/node_modules/expo-dev-launcher/expo-dev-launcher-gradle-plugin/.gradle’ when creating directory ‘/Users/a/Desktop/b/b-Frontend/node_modules/expo-dev-launcher/expo-dev-launcher-gradle-plugin/.gradle/buildOutputCleanup’
Later on, I also see:
BUILD FAILED in 14s
