Could not determine the dependencies of task ':app:mergeDebugAssets'

Question

When I run react-native run-android on my project,I get an build error of gradle. I already uninstalled react-native-ftp with npm uninstall --save react-native-ftp, removed that dependency of node_modules, clear ./gradle cached files. But the error continuous..

In my environment windows this project works normally.

What's happing?

error Failed to install the app. Make sure you have the Android development environment set up: https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup. Run CLI with --verbose flag for more details.
Error: Command failed: ./gradlew app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081

Answer 1

Go to your project level android directory and run ./gradlew clean If the problem persists, delete node_modules folder and npm install or you can do this manually: npm list and then resolve all UNMET DEPENDENCY issues

Answer 2

Step1: Check whether all your "SDK Platforms" and "SDK Tools" is installed and Updated"

Step2: Create "local.properties" file in android folder and paste the following

sdk.dir = /Users/USERNAME/Library/Android/sdk

THIS SHOULD SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS
