Answer 1

Do you have CFBundleIdentifier in your Info.plist?

If not than add it for eg. com.ios.learning

Answer 2

npm uninstall react-native

delete ios and android folder then run :

npm install react-native

react-native upgrade

Answer 3

Try to add CFBundleIdentifier in the Info.plist as:

 <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
<string>org.reactjs.native.example.$(PRODUCT_NAME:rfc1034identifier)</string>

Answer 4

I have the same problem right after init:

react-native init myapp cd myapp react-native run-ios

..although run-android was fine.

Not a solution but a workaround for the moment, maybe be to init using a lower version of RN:

react-native init myapp --version react-native@0.51.0

That builds okay. Similar in an existing project, install an older version of RN.

Other versions before 0.54.2 might work but I haven't tried.

(edited 2018/4/2) Found my solution from this link: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/18238

RN 0.54 requires types available since iOS 11. So you have to upgrade your xcode and set minimum iOS version in your app to 11

In short, upgraded OSX & Xcode to the latest. (As of today, OSX 10.13.4 Xcode & 9.3)

Answer 5

I have same problem

react-native upgrade Take my project to v0.57.3 And it works perfect now.

Answer 6

This may happen because of some library files not found.You need to follow some steps That I have done and it is worked perfectly for me. 1.) go to Xcode project -> Target -> select build Phase -> Go to target dependies -> Click on + -> add "react" and press add.

2.) Xcode > Product -> scheme > manage sceme -> click on + button -> targetName(React) -> Okay -> make shared of this by select checkbox under shared column.

3.) Clean your project and try to build, If it is getting some error like "glog/logging.h file not found" or "cofig.h file not found" in Xcode and "CFBundleIdentifier not exist" then do not worry. You are just one step far. This is may occurs if you are missing config.h file, For this you need to update config.h file. For this

4.) follow below steps a.) close your Xcode b.) Open terminal with the project (Or you can directly left click your project and drag your folder to closed terminal, [It will automatically take the path from your that corresponding folder]) c.) write command

cd node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.4/

d.) Run the configure scripted file by the command

./configure

e.) now close terminal and go to terminal with your project root path. now try final run your iOS project by

react-native run-ios

Happy Coding :)
