run-ios is failing on newly generated project

I decided to use react-native for my next app since I’ve heard a lot of good feedback about it.

So, I followed the installation process (I’m using Mac which is running El Capitan version 10.11.5) and it was installed properly. Then I created a new project and tried to run it for iOS:

> react-native init sample_program
> cd sample_program
> react-native run-ios

The last command gives me a lot of output, trying to compile the code that was generated by the init command, it starts the react packager, it opens up the iOS simulator but at the end it gives me the following error:

Here are the versions of relevant software I have installed in my system:

OSX: El Capitan version 10.11.5
XCode: 7.3.1
react-native-cli: 2.0.1
react-native: 0.45.1

Does anyone have any clue on why the run-ios is failing?

You’ll need Xcode 8 at the very least. Please install Xcode 8.3.3 and try again.

Been stuck on the same issue for the past few days, really killing progress. Is there a fix for this?
