React-native-firebase: 🔥Unable to resolve module `../crash`

[nishantWM]

Issue

Ran to it after upgrading the package to 5.2.1
Completed the upgrade steps and ran react-native run-android
Here's the stack trace

error: bundling failed: Error: Unable to resolve module `../crash` from `./ReactNative/Workspace/ProjectName/node_modules/react-native-firebase/dist/modules/core/firebase.js`: The module `../crash` could not be found from `./ReactNative/Workspace/ProjectName/node_modules/react-native-firebase/dist/modules/core/firebase.js`.

@nishantWM Did you try to clean the build files? I did it and it works for me (the path for crashlytics is changed.)
Also I removed the reference in the Xcode from the Libraries and add it again and linked again at Build Phases.

[Salakar]

Hey,

@golya is correct; crash reporting was removed in v5 (as crashlytics is now the replacement) so this is definitely a local build cache issue, try run your packager with --reset-cache and this should solve the issue.

Thanks

Yes, I did try resetting the cache, deleting node modules, reinstalling packages and rerunning the packager. The issue still remained.
I had not linked the RNFirebaseCrashlyticsPackage because I'm not using it. The issue resolved after I added linked the package in MainApplication.java

Anyway, it is resolved. Thanks.

I got the same problem after upgrading react-native to 0.59 and react-native-firebase to 5.4.3, but none of above answer helped.

[mikehardy]

@oskfelin after trying a clean reproduction outside your app, if this still happens please open a new issue following the template fully please - there are lots of ways to install react-native-firebase, but following the recommended path from the docs (in the way https://github.com/mikehardy/rnfbdemo does) results in a build that does work. So we don't think the module has a problem with this right now
