Hello guys, this is becoming a serious problem for me. I have been trying to create release apk file from last 2 weeks but I'm unable to do that due to this issue. It works fine on creating bundle i.e. gradlew bundleRelease. It does not throw any error on creating bundle but it failed to create release apk.

package.json file
