Upgrading version

Upgrade from 0.62.2 to 0.63.2

Description

My RN project was running on 0.62.2 without any issues. I have upgraded to 0.63.2 and now I am getting this error:

In file included from /Users/user/Documents/my-app-/ios/MyApp/main.m:10:
/Users/user/Documents/my-app-/ios/MyApp/AppDelegate.h:9:9: fatal error: 'UMReactNativeAdapter/UMModuleRegistryAdapter.h' file not found
#import <UMReactNativeAdapter/UMModuleRegistryAdapter.h>
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

Remarks

1. Our project was built using expo managed workflow, then after a few months, we ejected out of expo, upgraded to 0.62.2, and have developed in bare workflow.
2. I checked this and saw that our project is a bit different even on 0.62.2! Maybe because it was an expo managed workflow before.
3. When running npx react-native upgrade, I got this output:

4. If you need more info, feel free to ask and I will share the content of other files here.

Reproducible demo

1. npx react-native upgrade
2. rm -rf podfile.lock
3. Remove the content of Podfile and replace it with:

require_relative '../node_modules/react-native/scripts/react_native_pods'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'

platform :ios, '10.0'

target 'MyApp' do
  config = use_native_modules!

  use_react_native!(:path => config["reactNativePath"])

  use_flipper!
  post_install do |installer|
    flipper_post_install(installer)
  end
end

4. yarn install && cd ios && pod install && cd .. && npx react-native run-ios

[impl-kano]

I've got the same error... My project was on 0.61.5 and have been ejected from expo.

[ghasemikasra39]

Dear @impl-kano I have created a brand new expo project with sdk 39 and react native version 0.63.3 and ejected afterwards. I am trying to compare this result to my own project and do the upgrade manually.

[juzerdhinoj]

I am facing the same issue after updating from v0.62.2 to v0.63.3, my application is ejected from expo if someone figured out how to fix this issue please help out.

[ghasemikasra39]

@juzerdhinoj I fixed it by the manual upgrade. It took three days to make it to work. Using Expo is the biggest mistake a developer can make when starting a React Native project. I still don't understand why companies nowadays decide to start with Expo and then all of them regret after a few months and want to eject out of Expo.

[lucifer2355]

@ghasemikasra39 I have the same error. and also my application is ejected from the expo. my react-native version is 0.63.3. how to fix the issue please help out.

[diegodiaz]

I have the same error, my react-native version is 0.63.3

[Siddharth2212]

Hi i am facing same issue. iId anyone find solution?

[strillo]

Same problem on 0.63.4 (brand new app, no Expo).. Is there any update on this? I've tried reinstalling all node modules, pods etc but still getting the same error, both simulator & device.

[ghasemikasra39]

Dear @strillo The only solution that I can suggest is to create a brand new expo project with the latest sdk and the latest version of react native. Then eject afterward. Now you must compare this clean project with your own project and do all the modifications by hand. I can imagine how frustrating this would be.
