React Native Crash - Grey Screen - App Center build only - com.facebook.react.bridge.CatalystInstanceImpl.jniLoadScriptFromAssets(Native Method)

Getting a grey screen of death index.android.bundle in a release build with little to no config changes. I'm including a block from the logs on Android in the thread with two crashes (Crashlytics + Native) discovered after I downloaded a build from App Center.

Note: App Center complained that Gradle 4.1.0+ wasn't supported and to use an earlier version

Unable to load script. Make sure you're either running a Metro server (run 'react-native start') or that your bundle 'index.android.bundle' is packaged correctly for release.

Active Crash

Right now, the only change I can think of was an update to Crashlytics for React Native, or @react-native-firebase/crashlytics. But then again it built fine in the initial builds after changes, then after a few minor fixes in JS, the builds stopped working in App Center for Android. This configuration has been around for a bit. I'm at a loss why this keeps cropping up.

Solution

  • I ended up resolving this issue by getting a local release build with adb logcat running discovering exceptions being thrown from Crashlytics due to missing imports.

    Suffice to say, after some digging into documentation and piecing together what I needed.

    I was missing this inclusion in the settings.gradle:

    include ':@react-native-firebase_app'
project(':@react-native-firebase_app').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, './../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/app/android')

    The documentation on this tool is so poorly kept that I'd hardly recommend using it.
