React-native: React native expection java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: “/data/data/{package}/lib-main/libgnustl_shared.so” is 32-bit instead of 64-bit

[ishan-dhingra]

I am trying to integrate React Native with my existing Android App. I am getting the following exception when initializing React Native Screen:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: "/data/data/com.snapdeal.main/lib-main/libgnustl_shared.so" is 32-bit instead of 64-bit
The App is only crashing on 64-bit devices.

As per my learning so far, I've found this issue reported on React Native Repo, but the solution suggested in this thread is not helpful as I am not using any external SO library in existing App.

Apart from above, I've realized another difference in library structure on the device where my App is installed. I am comparing structure of my App vs react native demo app.

React demo App

root@generic_x86_64:/data/data/com.react.demo/lib # ls
libfb.so
libfolly_json.so
libglog.so
libglog_init.so
libgnustl_shared.so
libicu_common.so
libimagepipeline.so
libjsc.so
libreactnativejni.so
libreactnativejnifb.so

root@generic_x86_64:/data/data/com.react.demo/lib-main # ls
dso_deps
dso_lock
dso_manifest
dso_state

My App

root@generic_x86_64:/data/data/com.my.app/lib-main # ls
dso_deps
dso_lock
dso_manifest
dso_state
libfb.so
libfolly_json.so
libglog.so
libglog_init.so
libgnustl_shared.so
libicu_common.so
libimagepipeline.so
libjsc.so
libreactnativejni.so
libreactnativejnifb.so

Any clue is appreciated.

If you just run something trivial like the demo app can you get that working on the 64-bit device you are testing with?

[ishan-dhingra]

@lacker Yes, demo app was working and I got my App working as well. The problem was because of react-native android dependencies. I've used the same maven url as in docs here without looking at my projects dir structure.

[Brian-Kaplan]

@ishan-dhingra @lacker I'm having this same issue... My maven url is correct though...

React Native 0.41.2, integrating into an existing app. Error occurs only when trying to render a react view. Overlay permissions are set correctly, and the React packager is running.

[code-by]

When I run app (using 'react-native run-android' command) at 64-bit smartphone it worked fine, but release version apk crashed instantly, while same apk also working fine at 32-bit smartphone

do you solve you problem ? so did i have this problem

[tbarsbay]

+1

Running RN 0.43.3. Worked fine on my Nexus 6, doesn't work on my Pixel. Both are on Android 7.1.2.

I can run the app if I add this to my build.gradle file, but then other things seem to break in my React views.

packagingOptions {
    exclude '/lib/mips64/**'
    exclude '/lib/arm64-v8a/**'
    exclude '/lib/x86_64/**'
}

[sduqlsc]

+1, same error on API 23 device when using 0.44.2 with existing app integration.
After adding following seems working:

1. locating the gradle.properties file in the root project, and add Android.useDeprecatedNdk=true.

2. in the build.gradle of the app:

android {  
    ...  
    defaultConfig {  
        ...  
        ndk {  
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"  
        }  

        packagingOptions {  
            exclude "lib/arm64-v8a/librealm-jni.so"  
        }  
    }  
}  

In this way, using 32bit so instead of 64 bit, still, hope there's an official solution.

[mattijsf]

Thanks @sduqlsc that worked for me too. Though I only needed to add:

android {  
    ...  
    defaultConfig {  
        ...  
        ndk {  
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"  
        } 
    }
}

Btw, the above code is also part of the boilerplate Android project that is created when you would run react-native init. Though I'm not sure what the impact would be of disabling arm64 / x86_64 output.

[sduqlsc]

@mattijsf glad to hear that. 👍

[yogieputra8]

@sduqlsc @mattijsf 👍🏻 thanks man. I tried to put ndk id defaultConfig and finally it works on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4. Android Marshmallow.

[githubdoramon]

No official words from the react team?

[AaronVia]

It's also in effect when using Litho lib

[BALUSANGEM]

Thanks @sduqlsc @mattijsf
Iam using fresco and unity.
and placing

 ndk {
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
        }

inside defaultConfig solved my problem

But i want to know impact of this configuration , Thanks

[sduqlsc]

@BALUSANGEM the reason why should config certain ndk abiFilters is that this is configured in the mk file—— check out your react native project directory\node_modules\react-native\ReactAndroid\src\main\jni\Application.mk：

As for the impact, some 3rd party libraries may only provide armeabi instead of "armeabi-v7a", "x86". So in my opinion, there is a risk of app crash.

[atlas1119]

I have the same problem，I must add 'armeabi', 'arm64-v8a' to ndk，
ndk {
abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86", 'armeabi', 'arm64-v8a'
}

How to solve it?

[rusmichal]

I used

exclude '/lib/mips64/**'
exclude '/lib/arm64-v8a/**'
exclude '/lib/x86_64/**'

and it doesn't work but If I use those:

        exclude 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libgnustl_shared.so'
        exclude 'lib/x86/libgnustl_shared.so'

I'm able to build application and run. But I get explicitly error:

 java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[DexPathList[........] couldn't find "libgnustl_shared.so"
 at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:984)
 at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1530)
