Question

Answer 1

I figured out where the problem was in my case (Windows 10 OS), but It might also help in Linux as well( You might try).

In windows power shell, when you want to run an app(first time after pc boot) by executing the following command,

react-native run-android

It starts a node process/JS server in another console panel, and you don't encounter this error. But, when you want to run another app, you must need to close that already running JS server console panel. And then execute the same command for another app from the power shell, that command will automatically start another new JS server for this app, and you won't encounter this error.

You don't need to close and reopen power shell for running another app, you need to close node console to run another app.
