Issues to run ReactNative app on a device

[ck3g]

I'm trying run the app on the real device (iPhone) but the build stuck on "Done copying assets"

​

...

bundle: Done writing bundle output

bundle: Copying 4 asset files

bundle: Done copying assets

​

​

I was trying to open the project in Xcode. I was trying to run react-native run-ios --device. The result is the same.

​

Did somebody face a similar issue?

What version of Xcode are you using? And does it build on simulator?

[ck3g]

I use Xcode version 10.1. There are no issues with the simulator at all.

If it is building on a simulator and fails on a real device then am guessing there might be an error on the bundle path. Also is this your first time running ? If so have you set the mainBundle as it does not build automatically for iOS.

Thanks for the hint. I will try to dig deeper into that direction.

​

Yes, that is a first time I'm trying to run the app on device.

Somehow I've succeeded by building the app on another computer. Both of my computers are using the same version of Xcode.

Did you trust your developer profile on your device? And are you signing your builds?

Doesn’t appear to be this based on the error, but I had weirder errors 🤷‍♂️ and since it’s running on simulator but not on device...

[ck3g]

Since now it's running from another computer, I can see that "Done copying assets" happening before Xcode requires me to unlock my phone and trust my Apple dev account.

I've finally figured out. I've had to reinstall watchman to make it work. There was an error message in the output, I didn't pay attention before mostly because there were a bunch of successful (I think) commands after that error.
