When I run react-native start
, I am getting the following message
Error: A non-recoverable condition has triggered. Watchman needs your help!
The triggering condition was at timestamp=1489123194: inotify-add-watch(/var/www/html/eventManager/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-mdpi) -> The user limit on the total number of inotify watches was reached; increase the fs.inotify.max_user_watches sysctl
All requests will continue to fail with this message until you resolve
the underlying problem. You will find more information on fixing this at

This one helped
Just run these commands in terminal:
echo 256 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances
echo 32768 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_queued_events
echo 65536 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
watchman shutdown-server
Other Way make Script in package.json
"scripts": {
"start": "node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js start",
"test": "jest",
"flow": "flow",
"flow-stop": "flow stop",
"watch-need-help": "echo 256 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances && echo 32768 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_queued_events && echo 65536 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches && watchman shutdown-server"
},
Run following command on Terminal in project directory
npm run watch-need-help
Increase inotify limit to increase the limit on the number of files you can monitor.
$ echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
$ sudo sysctl -p
Please go through this for more info
updating
watchman
to latest(4.7.0) version helped me solve this problem.
