Code Push 8.0.0/RN 0.71.6 - StackOverflowError CodePushHash: Resource and asset merger: Duplicate resources

[arunshankart2s]

Thanks so much for filing an issue or feature request! Please fill out the following (wherever relevant): Recently we have changed react native version from 0.70 -> 0.71. Code push support for react native 0.71.6 is 8.0.0. Since then whenever changes we do in native code, we are getting below errors.

To fix this, for every native android code change we have to do ./gradlew clean and then use react-native run android to fix this issue. This is very very time consuming.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Do any change in android native and run the app using react-native run android
2. This issue we can reproduce

Having the same issue after upgrading from 7.0.4 to 8.0.1 as well on RN 71

[alcidesbsilvaneto]

This problem is ocurring to me every time I trying to run react-native run-android --variant release. I have to run ./gradlew assembleRelease and install the APK with ADB.

No problem with the development command (react-native run-android).

[RalissonMattias]

I had the same problem, but this resolved it for me:

1. Open Android Studio
2. Open your app android folder
3. Click on File > Invalidate Caches
4. Select all options in Invalidate Caches then click on Invalidate and Restart button
5. Wait Android Studio to load all informations
6. Run react-native run android again

I only ran into this issue when I tried to assemble a release build. rm -rf ~/.gradle/caches did not fix it.

[OsaedYahyaCoretava]

having same issue, tried everything suggested here it's not working

[account-mhj]

having same issue, tried everything suggested here it's not working

try react-native run-android --tasks clean,installDebug or cd android && ./gradlew clean.
But these are just workarounds, need react-native-code-push delete the Duplicate resources in new version.

[sagar-tomar-groww]

Any update regarding the fix by react-native-code-push team ?

[wogno]

I am the same issue, there still not have the solution

[dulu93]

Updating to version 8.0.2 while running react native 0.71.11 seems to have fixed the issue for me.

edit:

it did not fix the duplicate resource issue

[Grohden]

same here, also tried upgrading to latest release (8.0.2) but whenever I clean and build twice the second build breaks with the same log

CodePushHash: Resource and asset merger: Duplicate resources

[Jlexyc]

Have the same problem. It works for me if I run ./gradlew clean before each build.

[jobinabraham]

What is the solution to this? @geof90

[Neha-Housing]

Any solution for this issue?

[Dror-Bar]

As others have mentioned, it works if you run ./gradlew clean (in android folder) before each build.
So at least there's a temporary fix for this.
