react-native run-android shows BUILD SUCCESSFUL but exits the process

React Native version: 0.61.1 Operational System: Ubuntu 18.04

What I did

1. Followed the documentation steps to get started with React Native CLI Quickstart
2. Added my user tu the group of the /dev/kvm
3. Deleted the node_modules and ran sudo npm install.
4. Ran sudo chmod -R 777 ... to the project folder (AwesomeProject) and the node_modules.

Problem

I could fix a bunch of problems looking up online but I still can’t run the project. I am opening my AVD and running the command react-native run-android, it seems to go right but exits the process and my project doesn’t run.

Here’s what I get: (terminal view)

@kbmelo the new version in react native is not start node server and run your project after success build you must run node server with react-native start and open your project
