React-native: Xcode Crash on while installing node_modules

Created on 11 Jul 2019  路  9Comments  路  Source: facebook/react-native

I was working on app and it was working fine but certainly i noticed my Xcode got crashed then i tried to open my .xcodeproj file again but i was getting this message.
Every time i try to open .xcodeproj i got these messages

Then i searched about the this crash issue and found most of the solution by deleting derivedData and xcuserdata i did this but no luck and tried many things but no luck.
After 4 days of searching and trying i decided clone new fresh copy from repository.
and when i opens it in Xocde i got surprised that it opened successfully then i try to install node_modules and while installing node-modules i observed that it got crashed again then for confirmation i did three to four times when there is no node_modules folder i can open my project but when i start installing node_modules Xcode got crashed every time i also tried with npm and yarn too but same behaviour.

I had this exact problem which was caused by a specific package in my node_modules folder. After upgrading react-native-fast-image from ^5.1.2 -> ^7.0.2 xcode just crashed when opening the workspace. I then tried to downgrade to ^6.0.3 and that solved the problem.

Seems to be a known issue: DylanVann/react-native-fast-image#527

This isn't really a fix, but why don't you do npm install before you open Xcode? Xcode needs a bunch of things in node_modules so I wouldn't be surprised if it crashes when you do npm install. Xcode definitely shouldn't crash, but this seems like more of a problem with Xcode itself than React Native

@chrisspankroy Actually the problem was when i opens xcode with having node modules folder app crashes on start but when i open without node modules then i can open project.

Ah OK. I'd change the description to word that a little better then

the same :(( how to fix ??? please

@iamtb can you please explain what you already tried and may be i can help you more if you show me your Packege.json.

Yeah @okarlsson you are right. After lots of version change i found this problem with "react-native-fast-image" version so i move back to previous version and it works fine.

2 hours trying to figure out what was going on. Unfortunately it happened after I formatted my mac so I didn't have a full understanding of where to look for :D

same issue, downgrade to <7.0 is not a solution because of AndroidX support
