trying to upgrade from 44 to 45

Hi, I’m trying to upgrade my SDK from 44 to 45 and get this:

C:~~\Project>expo upgrade 45
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

To revert the changes after this command completes, you can run the following:
git clean --force && git reset --hard

I tried deleting the package-lock file as I saw that helped another user migrate TO 44, but it didn’t help.
would it work to do “yarn add expo@45.0.0” ?

I’m at a loss.

Hey @blackops,

Can you try running yarn upgrade @babel/core and then run expo upgrade. It feels like the issue might be similar to this: EXPO SDK 45 BETA - error running upgrade - failed to install expo package expo@next · Issue #17257 · expo/expo · GitHub

Thanks, Aman,
I ended up just initializing another project with SDK 46 and gradually injecting my current code into it. It’s building now. I think though that it all came down to deleting the yarn.lock file (not the package.lock file I’d had from a long time ago). Possibly that opens the project up to the latest @babel/core.

Your suspicions sound about right.

If you use yarn to manage your dependencies, you should have a yarn.lock file and it should be checked in to Git. Also, you should not have a package-lock.json file.

If you use npm to manage your dependencies it’s the opposite. You should have a package-lock.json file and you should not have a yarn.lock file.

If you have both lock files then I believe EAS Build assumes you’re using yarn, so it might install unexpected versions of dependencies.
