bundling failed: Error: Plugin 0 provided an invalid property of "default"

Question

I'm trying to run a react native app on my AVD using this command :

react-native run-android

but getting the following error:

 bundling failed: Error: Plugin 0 specified in "C:\\Users\\ASUS\\test\\node_modules\\babel-preset-react-native\\index.js" provided an invalid property of "default" (While processing preset: "C:\\Users\\ASUS\\test\\node_modules\\babel-preset-react-native\\index.js")

.babelrc :

{
  "presets": [
    "react-native"
    "@babel/preset-flow"
  ]
}

package.json :

{
  "name": "test",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js start",
    "test": "jest"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "16.4.1",
    "react-native": "^0.55.4"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-jest": "23.4.0",
    "babel-preset-react-native": "5.0.2",
    "jest": "23.4.1",
    "react-test-renderer": "16.4.1"
  },
  "jest": {
    "preset": "react-native"
  }
}

I'm using Windows , node.js v 8.11.3 & react native v 0.55.4

I've already tried everything recommended on internet(specially github) but still no luck. Really appreciate it if some one can help.

I had this issue, I needed to downgrade babel-preset-react-native version.

If you use yarn

yarn remove babel-preset-react-native
yarn add [email protected]

or use npm commands

npm uninstall babel-preset-react-native
npm install [email protected]
