I am trying to get React-Native to work with Android V4.2.2 (Genymotion)
but I am unable to test the app on the Emulator. When I ran react-native run-android
, I get this error Could not run adb reverse: spawnSync
Here is a log
JS server already running.

Make sure you have an Android emulator running or a device connected and have
set up your Android development environment:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/android-setup.html
NOTE: In the log it saids SDK directory does not exist, I have double check that I do have the SDK installed in that directory.
I found my android emulator when executing adb devices

I have tried the following steps from Stack Overflow post, but still no luck https://stackoverflow.com/a/38536290/4540216
Starting with macOS Catalina, your Mac uses zsh as the default login shell and interactive shell. You can make zsh the default in earlier versions of macOS as well. More details on zsh from Apple
So on your Mac:
1 - Open your .zshrc file:
open ~/.zshrc
2 - if .zshrc file doesn't exist, you need to create one & open again(Step 1)
touch ~/.zshrc
3 - Add this to your .zshrc file(Add JAVA_HOME to use Android Studio Embedded JDK)
export JAVA_HOME=/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/Contents/Home
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/<your_computer_name_here>/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/emulator:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin:$PATH
4 - Save and close
5 - Compile your changes
source ~/.zshrc
& make sure to restart your terminal.
I got the same issue. I updated my ANDROID_HOME env variable again it worked for me.
Follow this React-native android-setup documentation
ex:
export ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk
Windows:
set ANDROID_HOME=c:/Users/whoever/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk
macOS Mojave and earlier or bash users:
1 - Open your bash profile:
open .bash_profile
Add this to your bash_profile:
export ANDROID_SDK=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:$PATH
Save and close
Compile your changes
source ~/.bash_profile
For macOS Catalina and zsh users:
Starting with macOS Catalina, your Mac uses zsh as the default login shell and interactive shell. You can make zsh the default in earlier versions of macOS as well.
On your Mac:
Open your .zshrc file:
open ~/.zshrc
If .zshrc file not exist, you need to create one using touch
& open.
touch ~/.zshrc
Add this to your .zshrc file
export ANDROID_SDK=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:$PATH
Save and close
Compile your changes
source ~/.zshrc
Edit: Updated answer for macOS Catalina and zsh users.
I also got the same issue. And I updated my ANDROID_HOME env variable again in same cmd and it was worked fine.
> export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk
> export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
good luck
This answer is for MacOs Catalina
or above user or zsh
users as your Mac now uses zsh as the default login shell and interactive shell.
This is related to path issues.
If you follow along with the docs of React Native Setting up the development environment
guide. Then do the following.
~/.zshrc
using editor. In my case I use vimvim ~/.zshrc
export ANDROID_HOME="/Users/<yourcomputername>/Library/Android/sdk"
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/emulator:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
Make sure to add the above line correctly else it will give you a weird error.
Save the changes and close the editor.
Finally, now compile your changes
source ~/.zshrc
I get this working in my case. I hope this helps you.
