[Arat2003]

I am getting this error when I run the app on Android

• Where:
  Script 'C:\reactnative\auth\node_modules\react-native\react.gradle' line: 95

• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.

Could not get unknown property 'mergeResourcesProvider' for object of type com.android.build.gradle.internal.api.ApplicationVariantImpl.

Can you run react-native info and edit your issue to include these results under the Environment section?

If you believe this information is irrelevant to the reported issue, you may write `[skip envinfo]` alongside an explanation in your Environment: section.

I just re-did the whole project, fortunately, I was just beginning to code the app.

I just re-did the whole project, fortunately, I was just beginning to code the app.
Although I would still like to find a solution

I faced with the same problem and this workaround works for me.

after editing it this happened to me

Build file 'D:\projects\feb\android\app\build.gradle' line: 1

• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.

Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.application']
Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.10.1. Current version is 4.4. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in D:\projects\feb\android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties to gradle-4.10.1-all.zip

For me this issue was resolved just after I run my project from Android studio

the same problem when updating to v0.59.1, I could solve it by updating gradle and the compilation version to 28.

in /android/build.gradle

buildscript {
ext {
minSdkVersion = 21
compileSdkVersion = 28
targetSdkVersion = 26
supportLibVersion = "28.0.0"
playServicesVersion = "15.0.1"
}
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.2'
}
}

allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
google()
jcenter()
maven {
// All of React Native (JS, Obj-C sources, Android binaries) is installed from npm
url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
}
maven {
url 'https://maven.google.com'
}
}
configurations.all {
resolutionStrategy.force "com.android.support:support-v4:${rootProject.ext.supportLibVersion}"
}
}

in /android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.2-all.zip
