React-native get stuck at Dependency Graph

Question

I try to start with react-native, I've installed everything and got to phase where I have RSoD on my phone which is telling me to run server. When i run react-native start lot of things runs, but then it gets stuck at <END> Building Dependency Graph and I have no idea what to do with it. So, how can I make it continue?

Answer 1

One reason the "Building Dependency Graph" step might hang may be due to that there is a (Chrome) debugger session running from a previous session or another project. One way to fix that is to completely quit out of Xcode, your terminal, and Chrome and then restart everything. I'm sure there is a better way to fix the issue, but that is what worked for me.

Answer 2

I had the same problem, that it ended there and even refreshing the simulator didn't make the packager to go on. Then I figured it out: I was still connected to the Internet via a VPN, so the simulator couldn't connect to the packager. Simply closing the VPN solved the issue.
