Upgrading version

0.61.5 -> 0.62.0 using https://react-native-community.github.io/upgrade-helper/?from=0.61.5&to=0.62.0 and #13. I have also set Always Embed Swift Standard Libraries to YES.

Description

The app builds successfully but crashes immediately (only on iOS) when opening. The following error is given:

0 __abort_with_payload

My Swift build settings:

I have tried:

• Cleaning build folder
• Deleting DerivedData
• Reinstalling Xcode completely

but nothing has worked so far.

Reproducible demo

I was unable to recreate this error in a fresh React Native project, which leads me to believe that I did something wrong during the upgrade. The project worked perfectly on RN 0.61.5.

Thanks in advance, and please let me know if there are any other files/logs I need to provide.

[EmpireJones]

I was getting that error, and this fixed it for me: https://github.com/react-native-community/upgrade-support/issues/30#issuecomment-608495255

I added a File.swift in my projects, and it was ok. But if I removed the file again, it crashed again. So, in xCode, I went to BuildSettings -> Linking -> runpath search path , and manually changed each build line to:

/usr/lib/swift $(inherited) And now it builds and starts fine, without the .swift file

[hbarylskyi]

Had the same issue and only adding /usr/lib/swift to Runpath Search Paths helped.
