1) Make sure reanimated's babel plugin is installed in your babel.config.js (you should have 'react-native-reanimated/plugin' listed there - also see the above link for details)
2) Make sure you reset build cache after updating the config, run: yarn start --reset-cache, js engine: hermes

Module has not been registered as callable. Registered callable JavaScript modules (n = 11): Systrace, JSTimers, HeapCapture, SamplingProfiler, RCTLog, RCTDeviceEventEmitter, RCTNativeAppEventEmitter, GlobalPerformanceLogger, JSDevSupportModule, HMRClient, RCTEventEmitter.
A frequent cause of the error is that the application entry file path is incorrect. This can also happen when the JS bundle is corrupt or there is an early initialization error when loading React Native., js engine: hermes

Yeah I restarted my computer and it worked. But I’m not sure if what actually fixed it. 🥲
Did you do something that solved it? I can’t get past this issue. @ardhendu12345
Following these 3 steps fixed it. To elaborate since this comment I quoted above is ambiguous in my opinion:
babel.config.js
file in your project. If you have other plugins this one must be listed last:plugins: ["react-native-reanimated/plugin"],
yarn start --reset-cache
ornpm run start --reset-cache
These 3 steps worked for me 😃
Restarting computer fixed it 👍🏻
yarn start --reset-cache
?I’ve had the same problem. Running
npm run start --reset-cache
didn’t do anything.Running
npx react-native start --reset-cache
did finally reset the transform cache and the error disappeared.You missed
--
in the command, the actual command isnpm run start -- --reset-cache
.I am seriously thinking to give up the reanimated library, been having this problem for a month now. Nothing seems to fix it. Runs good in Expo GO, but all native builds fail to execute with fatal crash on app start. been clearing chaches, been including the babel plugin, been adding import lines at the top of entry files, nothing seems to fix the issue. Anyone can explain to me why reanimated has this issues ?
I have this issue after upgrading from 2.9.1 to 2.11.0. event after upgrading to 2.14.3
In development I run the command
yarn start --reset-cache
and everything works fine. BUT when I’m trying to run my app in iOS Release mode, my app crashes and throws the error:Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'RCTFatalException: Unhandled JS Exception: Error: Requiring module "414", which threw an exception: Error: Failed to initialize react-native-reanimated library
Now how can I force it to run it’s release command with --reset-cache? Or anything to solve this issue in release mode?
can’t believe it, resetting my computer literally worked too! Is it 1998 again? 😃
Worked after running “yarn start --reset-cache”, thanks
after following the instruction of react-native-reanimated … i use npm start --reset-cache and then again run the command npx react-native run-android and it successfully built my project…nothing else to do .
This issue still exist react-native -0.70.3 react-native-reanimated-2.11.0 after modifying babel.config.js to module.exports = { presets: [‘module:metro-react-native-babel-preset’], plugins: [ ‘react-native-reanimated/plugin’, ], };
Please help what to do to solve the issue
Hey! Did you run
yarn start --reset-cache
after modifyingbabel.config.js
?Also, 2.2.4 is like 11.5 months old. Try upgrading to 2.11.0 and re-open the issue if the problem persists.
