CodePudding user response：

there is issue with your java installation. Please Install JDK 11 on your machine. you can install mac with HomeBrew and on windows use can use chocolatey

check this message so you can identify this issue Make sure Kotlin compilation is running on a JDK, not JRE.

CodePudding user response：

Try to run this command:-

ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk

and after that

npx react-native run-android

Or else try to update the gradle version by putting this line into the wrapper properties

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.5.1-all.zip

CodePudding user response：

Run the following command

chmod 755 android/gradlew

inside your app root folder then run

react-native run-android
