See original GitHub issueDescription
I can not generate Android release apk with enabling of new architecture even though it works well on debug mode.
I am getting this error while generating release apk.
Could you please let me know how i can resolve this issue.

* The react.gradle file registers a task for each build variant (e.g. bundleDebugJsAndAssets

* bundle directly from the development server. Below you can see all the possible configurations
* and their defaults. If you decide to add a configuration block, make sure to add it before the
* `apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle"` line.

* bundleAssetName: "index.android.bundle",
