Steps to reproduce

App worked fine on emulator and for expo build until adding in Amplify Auth. Now the emulator works but build fails.

Snack, screenshot, or link to a repository

Fi I simply comment out the following the build works fine:

// import { Amplify } from 'aws-amplify';
// import awsconfig from './src/aws-exports';

// Amplify.configure(awsconfig);

I faced similar issue.
I resolved it by simply checking if my project was using multiple versions of metro-config.
If yes then upgrade to version which is used by react-native in my case I updated my metro-config version to 0.76.7.
This might be helpful

Same issue for me, still unable to find a solution :/

I faced this exact issue on a bare React Native project, but I managed to get through it! 🥳

It turned out to be just a cache problem. I had switched from building the version of my app that used React Native 0.72 to building an old one using React Native 0.70. Both the local and CD builds failed for the 0.70 version, with the error message main.jsbundle does not exist.

Initially, I tried to relaunch the process after cleaning the node_modules and reinstalling pods, but it still failed. I also checked the metro versions, but everything was consistent. Then, I used my favorite "let's burn everything to sanitize" tool: rn-game-over. It cleans absolutely all the caches you can think of (and even the ones you don't think of). After that, my local build succeeded. Then, I fixed my build on GitHub Actions by nuking all the caches I could find for the process.

It was probably a bit overkill. Maybe just deleting the Pods folder or Pods cache would have been enough, but anyway, it worked! I recommend it to anyone wanting to get rid of the "cache param" when debugging such an issue - one of your worst enemy,

TL;DR :

• Fix local build: npx rn-game-over --all 🔥
• Fix CD: nuke the caches!

Hi same issue after updating react-native to 0.72.4 from 0.70.5.
Able to fix it by build:ios command but I need to run the build:ios command every time before creating ios archive.
Which was not default behavior.
Please let know if there is any other fix for this.
And rn-game-over don't work

After I forced Xcode to use the same Node.js version as my project, this issue stopped happening. To force the Node.js version, I simply set the default version to the correct one using the command:

nvm alias default 12.22.12
