I confirm the problem.

It's is due to the React version 16.0.0-alpha.5 published on NPM yesterday.

Fix your React version to ~16.0.0-alpha.4~ (EDIT: 16.0.0-alpha.3, my bad) in your package.jsonand re-install the dependencies.

It's a serious issue though, because all existing projects using 0.43-rc* are concerned.

[hnzlk2014]

16.0.0-alpha.3 is ok.

I think the problem is that we didn't pin the React version during one of the previous syncs: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/24a7665df5c35e0db32572c6ff83f51392c43f13#commitcomment-21457443. So now every time we release a new alpha of react (potentially with breaking changes because it's an alpha), React Native RC that contains ~ in the peer dependency will let the users happily upgrade to a broken version.

For people in this thread, the solution is to pin your react version in package.json to 16.0.0-alpha.4. Your code might not work with 16.0.0-alpha.5 until we do another sync.

[gaearon]

(And we need to pin React versions in the future, just like we did before. I'm not sure why we broke the pattern, and whether it was intentional or not.)

The package build issue should be resolved as far as I'm aware with https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/a2cfea1934ab3682b2597a53de0b2b00a319832f

[gaearon]

The followup we agreed on is @bvaughn will submit a PR removing ~ from package.json and coordinate with @mkonicek to get a similar change into RC branch.

[gaearon]

Fix up in https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/13121.

The solution suggested by ncuillery did not work for me. I still get same "No bundle url present" error.

[sergiofraile]

Same in here. Even a new project with react-native 0.43.3 gives me the same issue.
