React-native: Gradlew fails on assembleRelease

[scriptjs]

bundleReleaseJsAndAssets fails on apps created with 0.19.0 on OSX 10.10. I am running the following Java:

java version "1.8.0_51"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_51-b16)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.51-b03, mixed mode)

Note that the app bundles properly.

$ react-native bundle --entry-file index.android.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res --platform android --dev false

Looks like you installed react-native globally, maybe you meant react-native-cli?
To fix the issue, run:
npm uninstall -g react-native
npm install -g react-native-cli

Hey scriptjs, thanks for reporting this issue!

React Native, as you've probably heard, is getting really popular and truth is we're getting a bit overwhelmed by the activity surrounding it. There are just too many issues for us to manage properly.

• If you don't know how to do something or something is not working as you expect but not sure it's a bug, please ask on StackOverflow with the tag react-native or for more real time interactions, ask on Discord in the #react-native channel.
• If this is a feature request or a bug that you would like to be fixed, please report it on Product Pains. It has a ranking feature that lets us focus on the most important issues the community is experiencing.
• We welcome clear issues and PRs that are ready for in-depth discussion. Please provide screenshots where appropriate and always mention the version of React Native you're using. Thank you for your contributions!

rn version 0.20
i have same error

[farwayer]

Look like it is about #6272. Check that you installed react-native-cli globally.

[maikokuppe]

Had the same error and installing react-native-cli globally did not help me. I solved it by restarting the gradle daemon with android/gradlew --stop (using Ubuntu 14.04)

[Coobers]

If option with gradlew do not work for you, try closing Android Studio.
It might be cause of this problem, when you use multiple SDK's in your system.

@maikokuppe that's right
