Description

The cli is broken once you have installed xcode 10. Creating any new project will render the same issue (compilation failure) as it seems to be failing compiling double conversion as illustrated below:

Reproducible Demo

  1. Let you mac update to xcode 10 and command line tools.
  2. Create brand new project react-native init awesomeApp
  3. Once it has finished setting up, run cd awesomeApp && react-native run-ios

Workaround for new projects

Once the project has been initialised, kill facebook’s team identifiers with

sed -i '' '/DevelopmentTeam = V9WTTPBFK9/d;/DEVELOPMENT_TEAM/d;/ProvisioningStyle = Automatic/d' ./node_modules/react-native/React/React.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj

Running react-native run-ios this time should work.

I was facing a similar issue after upgrading. To solve it I ran the following commands:

$ cd node_modules/react-native/scripts && ./ios-install-third-party.sh && cd ../../../
$ cd node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.5/ && ../../scripts/ios-configure-glog.sh && cd ../../../../

Now Xcode builds fine.

@mattijsf 's suggestion worked for me, it can be found in the xcode ui via:

  1. File -> Project/Workspace settings
  2. Build System: dropdown -> change to Legacy Build system

Temporary workaround of course 👀

@ChrisChares I discovered that running the bare configure script actually produces a faulty config.h, causing issues building on physical devices in Xcode 10. Please consider one of the following approaches:

  • Run the build again after it initially failed (only first build fails). This worked best for me.
  • cd node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.5/ && ../../scripts/ios-configure-glog.sh

I also met this problem after upgrading my Xcode to version 10. Combining all the possible workarounds above, I fix this by:

Clean RN cache

$ rm -rf ~/.rncache

Re-install the deps

$ cd your_project_path
$ rm -rf node_modules/ && npm install

Then install the third-party

$ cd node_modules/react-native/scripts
$ ./ios-install-third-party.sh

Run the commands below if glog installation failed.

$ cd ../third-party/glog-0.3.x
$ ./configure

It works for me, I hope it helps for you.

I actually found that Xcode 10 has a new build system that affects how / when scripts are executed during the Build Phase. I had similar problems in Xcode 10 with other internal projects which generate files during the build phase.

For those projects and react-native I found that switching to the Legacy Build Systems solved the problem where the dependencies (third-party / glog etc) are not correctly generated on the first build.

To switch to the legacy build system do the following:

File -> Project/Workspace Settings… Under Build System choose: Legacy Build System

Note that the project changes won’t be picked up by git because project.xcworkspace is part of the .gitignore file generated by react-native init

I was having a similar issue, in my case, just accepting the xcode license solved all issues.

Did the job in my case.

rm .rncatch && clear project && run project If running an error： glog-0.3.x please cd ./node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.x && ./../scripts/ios-configure-glog.sh

@kelset It is a project / workspace setting. Once the settings is changed within Xcode a file is written to: ios/[Project].xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcshareddata/WorkspaceSettings.xcsettings:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>BuildSystemType</key>
	<string>Original</string>
</dict>
</plist>

(the path will be different for workspaces)

I also tried applying that setting to only node_modules/react-native/React/React.xcodeproj but that won’t work. It really needs to be on the “parent” project / workspace that initiates the build.

I’m seeing the same too. @mattijsf’s solution did allow iOS to compile, however as a side effect, I then saw the following errors when trying to run the Android version:

Failed to capture snapshot of input files for task ':app:bundleReleaseJsAndAssets' property '$1' during up-to-date check.
Could not list contents of '/node_modules/react-native/scripts/third-party/glog-0.3.5/test-driver'. Couldn't follow symbolic link

Clearing down node_modules and re-running npm install allowed Android to compile, but failed on iOS again.

@kelset In response to your question above - this happened both on an old project created before XCode 10 was installed and a new project created after XCode 10 was installed. It happens on both RN 0.56 and 0.57.

We had this same issue. We downgraded Xcode to 9.4.1 and it appears to have fixed the build error above.

I used this:

$ cd node_modules/react-native/scripts ; ./ios-install-third-party.sh ; cd ../../../
$ cd node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.5/ ; ./configure ; cd ../../../../

and this: link libfishhook.a

and I am working fine

It feels to me this issue is impacted by some parallel build / racing condition…

I can repeat the following script 10x but I get the same error every time:

rm -rf TestAppRN0570 ; react-native init TestAppRN0570 ; cd TestAppRN0570 ; react-native run-ios ; cd ..

Build input file cannot be found: ‘…/TestAppRN0570/node_modules/react-native/third-party/double-conversion-1.1.6/src/strtod.cc’

However if execute react-native run-ios again for the 2nd time it builds. So basically only the initial run-ios fails.

The same thing can be said with opening the project for the first time in Xcode (without using run-ios) The first build fails, the second build succeeds.

@mattijsf Yeah, I’ve tested on a physical device running iOS12.

ios-install-third-party.sh should be exec in the node_modules/react-native directory

My solution, add the code to my scripts/postinstall.sh file

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ ! -d "node_modules/react-native/third-party" ]; then
  cd node_modules/react-native ; ./scripts/ios-install-third-party.sh ; cd ../../
  cd node_modules/react-native/third-party/glog-0.3.5/ ; ./configure ; cd ../../../../

Hi, just providing some feedback based on my experience:

  1. I have accepted the license agreement and it did no changes what-so-ever. I also tried this on a brand new machine, clean install (to check if it was the license agreement that for some reason on my computer is accepted but might be an issue) and the crash is completely different.
  2. The issue might be different to the one reported by @mattijsf, I’ve executed his suggestions and it still does not work on my system.

Cheers!

The original issue text’s workaround for new projects looks like what we already have in place in master (https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/8103c431c897c02d47cfad1e71bb2e6ddaabbdc0).

Can people make the change from https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/8103c431c897c02d47cfad1e71bb2e6ddaabbdc0 to their project and verify if that, by itself, solves the issue?

@chrisbianca This happened to me on existing project, try to remove your node modules, clear watchman cache and yarn / npm cache to re-install everything (maybe even try clearing lock files if you can). After I did all that, third party issue wen’t away.

This issue has more info: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/14382
