Included build node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin does not exists #36643

pr0tonion · 2023-03-26T12:48:08Z

Description

Im trying to upgrade from 0.65.1 to 0.71.4 and I am encountering a problem where Gradle cannot find the gradle-plugin.

I am using yarn for installation.

I have triple checked that all changes are correct from the upgrade helper.

My react-native node package.

node_modules
- @react-native
- - Assets
- - normalize-color
- - polyfills
    --- no gradle-plugin folder here

Steps I have tried.
Removing caches:
rm -r $HOME/.gradle/caches
Remove and reinstall packages
rm -rf node_modules
rm -rf yarn.lock
yarn install

React Native Version

0.71.4

For react native 0.71, the package is located inside node_modules/react-native-gradle-plugin.

includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')

This is wrong, you will have to use:

includeBuild('../node_modules/react-native-gradle-plugin')

For React Native 0.72+ instead the correct path is the one you shared originally.

includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')

Also where have you copied this from @pr0tonion ?

pr0tonion · 2023-04-02T15:33:14Z

@cortinico I was using the upgrade helper. But I see now that I clearly missed that part...
Thank you so much! I have been looking at this problem for a week and have somehow overlooked it the 4 times I checked

@cortinico Are you able to edit your comment with this new info, since you have the most thumbs-up in this thread, it is easy to get confused :)

includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')

Still getting the error
"Could not read script 'node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin' as it is a directory"

Ritikkk-09 · 2023-08-17T07:31:36Z

includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')

i tried this but i get same problem

What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating settings 'MyProjecct'.

Included build 'gradle-plugin' must have a settings file.

Hi @cortinico, my project have react native 0.72.4, but it is showing the same error, As I noticed my node_modules doesn't contain that folder which you specified to add instead I found react-native-gradle-plugin inside node_modules

but it is showing the same error, As I noticed my node_modules doesn't contain that folder which you specified to add instead I found react-native-gradle-plugin inside node_modules

@rishabhrawat4 Then it means that either your package or a dependency is depending on react-native-gradle-plugin@0.71.x. You can debug this with yarn why and find the offending dependency

Can anyone help with this i upgraded my react-native-0.72.4. im getting this error.

I have a gradle-plugin folder inside the node_modules/@react-native folder. how can I solve this issue?
@cortinico do yo have any idea on this?

riteshkukreti28 · 2023-08-25T11:01:58Z

@Suresh-Naragonda
You can just remove that "includeBuild" line completely.
I saw this solution from the react-native-upgrade-helper and it worked fine for me.

Florent75 · 2023-09-01T14:33:09Z

Hi there,
having the exact same issue with upgrade from 0.62.1 to 0.69.1

None of the previous solutions are working for me.

Even when I do "./gradlew clean" I got the same :

What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':react-native-gradle-plugin:compileKotlin'.

Compilation error. See log for more details

I followed the react native updated plus tried every previous solutions.

Any ideas ?

I'm using RN 0.72+ and pnpm and I only see 2 symlinks in this folder:

does anyone knows how to fix this using pnpm?

did u solve this problem? same here

Gxmadix · 2023-12-07T12:26:58Z

A workaround for pnpm is to point to library inside .pnpm
in my case, a mono repo, in the parent folder.
includeBuild('../../node_modules/.pnpm/@react-native+gradle-plugin@0.72.11/node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')

I am facing error node_modules/react-native-gradle-plugin does not exist. I am using 0.64.4 version of react native and working on an existing project. Also I checked inside node modules, I don't see any library named react-native-gradle-plugin inside it.
