react-native-maps: React-native build error: Execution failed for task ':react-native-maps:prepareComAndroidSupportAppcompatV72301Library'. > Could not expand ZIP

I created a new react-native project on a Windows 10 system, installed the react-native-maps package and rnpm link, but when starting the project I get a Build failed error.

What is causing this problem?

react-native init myapp
npm install react-native-maps --save
rnpm link
react-native run-android

Versions

react-native-cli: 1.3.0
react-native: 0.39.1
node: v7.2.1
npm: 3.10.10

Execution failed for task ‘:app:prepareSrolkReactNativeFilePickerUnspecifiedLibrary’. Could not expand ZIP …node_modules\react-native-file-picker\android\build\outputs\aar\react-native-file-picker-release.aar

(on windows):

cd android 
gradlew clean 
cd ..
react-native run-android

cd android && gradlew clean && cd .. && react-native run-android

Try running react-native run-android 5-6 times consecutively. Each time it got further and further, until it finally got past all the tasks that relate to react-native-maps. Kinda annoying to have to do this as a workaround…

@alexicum instructions work although i got gradlew command doesn’t exist should add ./ infront of gradlew

cd android && ./gradlew clean && cd … && react-native run-android

As suggested by @arthur-tse7 after running react-native run-android multiple times, I am able to run the app successfully.

To clearify, my situation has nothing to do with this project.

So I’ve been stuck on my project not running for awhile. Getting a bunch of errors relating to my packages such as:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What was the solution to get it working?? @arthur-tse7 run react-native run-android literally 14 times…
