rn-tester Android build fails on main

See original GitHub issue

Description

I’m trying to run the rn-tester app, building React Native from source on Android.

I’m on the current main branch, and have no diff, and I believe I’ve met all the prerequisites for building from source.

However, I’m consistently seeing a gradle build error:

Main does seem broken (due to the migration to CMake from Android.mk), but I think I should close this for now.

Thanks for reporting this. The issue should be resolved by now (it required a bump of the Codegen + a revert of a commit that was preventing RN Tester from starting).

Doesn’t seem fixed, although our exact error is a bit different.

Are you talking about main having RN-Tester broken? As this was the original issue. Please open a new issue reporting what is not working in your case and if it’s related to rn-tester or not.
