Reproducible Demo

react-native init helloworld --version 0.59.10

[mindlapse]

Issue appears on multiple npm versions, including npm@next and [email protected], and with node 10.16.0 (LTS)

[ekwoodrich]

Really struggling with this, experienced the same error on node v10.16.0 and node v12.7.0 with [email protected].

[mindlapse]

Affects react-native 0.59.0 to 0.59.10 that have the "@react-native-community/cli": "^1.2.1" dependency.

Does not impact react-native 0.60.0 and above with the "@react-native-community/cli": "^2.0.1" dependency.

[mindlapse]

This just started happening within the past 24 hours

we met with the same problem.

Gonna fix that once I have access to my workstation. In the meantime (and generally in future, global cli is unnecessary now) use npx: npx react-native init App -- version 0.59.10. It will use the latest cli with 0.59 template.

[mindlapse]

Thank you for the fast response! As expected, the same issue is appearing with npx react-native init App --version 0.59.10

[thymikee]

Bummer, looks like npx is taking some local RN of yours instead of from network

[thymikee]

Published a fix. Can you try again?

[mindlapse]

I'm seeing the same error (after removing package-lock.json, trying with npx and with the CLI, and npm cache clean --force, and then on another machine running a CircleCI build - same thing appears)

[thymikee]

Does it happen with yarn?

[abhrp-hs]

Resolved this currently by forcing v1.10.0 of the library in package.json. Working fine with node v11.0.0 and npm v6.10.0

[haohongwei]

In a computer with ubuntu, I met with this problem.
But in a Mac, it works well.
I do not know whether it is related with computer system.

[rmariscal13]

I do not use dependecy @react-native-community/cli and i have the same problem since i have donde rm -rf node_modules > npm install.
And i have other project that do not use @react-native-community/cli either and works.
(Or almost i do not see this dependency in my package.json)

[amitme0014]

We are facing the same issue, any hacks for now to get this running? I am on linux machine, using jenkins server to build a project.

[thymikee]

Fixed in 1.11.2. Please update the @react-native-community/cli to the latest version.

[amitme0014]

thanks it worked now
