unable to load script from assets in

Answer 1

1 Go to your project directory and check if this folder exists android/app/src/main/assets

1. If it exists then delete two files viz index.android.bundle and index.android.bundle.meta
2. If the folder assets don't exist then create the assets directory there.

2.From your root project directory do

cd android && ./gradlew clean

3.Finally, navigate back to the root directory and check if there is one single entry file calledindex.js

• If there is only one file i.e. index.js then run following command react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res

• If there are two files i.e index.android.js and index.ios.js then run this react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.android.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res

  4. Now run react-native run-android
