Description

enabled the new architecture after upgrading from 0.65.1 to 0.70.3 and I am trying to build the app and it always fails !!! Any idea what is the issue here ? The ini folder directory inside the build folder isn't generated at all. Task :app:buildCMakeDebug[arm64-v8a] C/C++: ninja: Entering directory `/Users/adham/MobileX/android/app/.cxx/Debug/66286b3x/arm64-v8a' C/C++: /Users/adham/MobileX/android/app/src/main/jni/MainApplicationModuleProvider.cpp:3:10: fatal error: 'rncli.h' file not found C/C++: /Users/adham/MobileX/android/app/src/main/jni/MainComponentsRegistry.cpp:7:10: fatal error: 'rncli.h' file not found

The rncli.h file is generated by the React Native CLI. It seems like the CLI is not running properly for you, most likely you missed something during the upgrade process.

Could you share a reproducer?

@AdhamMahmoud98, how did you fix this? I have the same problem here by just trying to upgrade my 0.64 project to 0.70.x on ARM macOS.

Late edit: Solved the problem by removing problematic dependency: @react-native-community/cli-platform-android": "^7.0.1"
