I’ve been trying to fix it for three days still can’t solve it.
when I checked the code line by line I found a cause by import * as Notifications from ‘expo-notifications’

Hopefully, someone can help me, any help is appreciated. Thank you very much!

hi! try following this guide i just wrote up to help narrow down the source of the problem and let me know what you find debugging.md · GitHub

in this case, it seems like you got far enough to where you have identified a line of code that is causing the problem, but the next step is to try it in a new project. i went ahead and did this, and it works as expected. so, now you can try to circle back to your project find out what the difference is

I found this

please refer to this:

I found out what causes this error. “module-resolver”
after I added this code on a new project with SDK40 and “expo start -c” the same error occurred.
but it was working with SDK39.

babel.config.js

module.exports = function (api) {
  api.cache(true);
  return {
    presets: ["babel-preset-expo"],
    plugins: [
      [
        "module-resolver",
        {
          root: ["./"],
          extensions: [".js", ".ios.js", ".android.js", ".fx.js", ".ts"],
          alias: {
            "@screens": "./screens",
            "@assets": "./assets",
            "@images": "./assets/images",
            "@constants": "./constants",
            "@components": "./components",
            "@UI": "./components/UI",
            "@actions": "./store/actions",
            "@reducers": "./store/reducers",
            "@models": "./models",
            "@navigation": "./navigation",
            "@util": "./util",
          },
        },
      ],
      ["@babel/plugin-syntax-class-properties"],
    ],
  };
};

maybe try leaving out the extensions option? i don’t use this babel plugin so i can’t help much here, but i am glad that you were able to find the source of the problem!

I did remove the extensions and even changed the alias names but it is not working.
only it works when "module-resolver" is removed.

you could try to reproduce it in a new project, and see what the minimal code is that is needed to cause this problem. i believe this is quite a popular babel plugin used by many others, so there is likely some other code interacting with module resolver here. i outlined some steps to help do that in the doc i shared above
