cyprusglobe · 2016-07-18T21:03:18Z

@RainliFu
you might check the permissions on android/gradlew

they should be 755 not 644

run chmod 755 android/gradlew inside your app root folder
then run react-native run-android

and it should work again.

jaxlifu · 2016-07-19T01:09:27Z

@cyprusglobe
Thanks for your help,I will try later!
My company computer is ok .

ghost · 2016-08-30T08:30:05Z

@cyprusglobe Your suggestion worked. Thanks a lot.

It works for me too !! Thx!!! @cyprusglobe

scheriff · 2016-10-13T20:46:16Z

@cyprusglobe should this be put in documentation?

how about windows i am getting the same error?

ignacy130 · 2017-03-25T14:24:27Z

Had similar problem, but with
NoClassDefFoundError. Uninstalling java and jdk, rebooting and installing java and jdk (x86 and x64) helped me.

Pianist038801 · 2017-04-10T05:53:58Z

leon2017 · 2017-05-03T05:35:05Z

if your android rom is MIUI ROM,find the solution: go settings -> developer option -> close MIUI optimization

eaintphyo · 2017-05-18T08:16:33Z

I got the same error on windows. Could you give me some solutions?

coderabsolute · 2017-05-18T14:31:37Z

Just starting out by downloading the latest react-native-cli. I do have the Android Emulator running in the background. Am running into similar issue and am not sure how to @cyprusglobe's solution....

eaintphyo · 2017-05-23T08:03:27Z

I also try like this as you commented, but the error has not gone. I want to run with external device.
Thanks @coderabsolute

eaintphyo · 2017-05-24T10:03:40Z

@cryptobiote Thanks for this.

Windows users will want to run chmod 755 android/gradlew.bat

muhtar93 · 2017-07-29T18:33:14Z

Yes, i know
But i'm mac users :)

codelinter · 2017-08-07T05:05:16Z

On windows, this can be resolved by reinstalling react-native-cli

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

npm install -g react-native-cli

Restart powershell and Android Studio. You must start a new project and delete old ones.

react-native init NewProject

WeslleyNasRocha · 2017-08-18T03:30:27Z

It worked for me 👍

kostyaVyrodov · 2017-08-21T12:13:25Z

It helped on windows:
Run 'react-native run-android' via cmd as admin

kostyaVyrodov · 2017-08-29T14:05:31Z

@sheyda93
I sometimes still run into the error, and you can try to perform next steps:

Go to android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe and run via cmd: adb.exe devices
You should make sure that device is really visible
Remove all files from the dir: "yourproject"....../android/app/build
(the build dir should be empty)
Uninstall app from emulator (if you have already installed it)

Try to install again

marceloaraujo · 2017-09-18T18:19:02Z

@cyprusglobe Man, you saved my life. Thanks a lot!!!

enzeberg · 2017-10-03T12:26:19Z

For Windows:
@kostyaVyrodov is right. Running "react-native run-android" via cmd as admin helps. Use cmd as admin, but not PowerShell.

labidiaymen · 2017-10-09T10:33:07Z

@enzeberg Running "react-native run-android" via cmd as admin helps me also.

ngoctuong96 · 2017-10-24T01:11:32Z

@cyprusglobe how to check permission on android/gradlew?

TheHemantKaushik · 2017-11-14T07:10:39Z

I'm running command as:

sudo react-native run-android

shenghaoAN · 2017-11-25T08:56:55Z

It works for me.

joelGarcia93 · 2017-12-11T20:47:23Z

I was facing same issue, I fixed by running "npm install" Lol

TheHemantKaushik · 2017-12-27T06:41:44Z

I tried "sudo react-native run-android" on my mac, working fine!

marcelloJr · 2017-12-30T17:16:57Z

Basta modificar a permissão (sudo chmod -R 777 android/grandlew) da pasta android/grandlew dentro da raiz do projeto, ou você pode rodar o comando sudo react-native run-android...

Why there is still no solution for windows??

akshayseth · 2018-04-30T05:58:42Z

For me enabling developer options in emulator worked.I mean obviously you have to do that boi!

今天也遇到这个问题，刚解决，在项目下：
执行：chmod 755 android/gradlew =>没解决
