Problem Description

I am facing issues while creating a fresh React Native project. The error occurs during the autolinking process:

ERROR: autolinkLibrariesFromCommand: process cmd /c npx @react-native-community/cli config exited with error code: 1

This error appears when running the project, and the build fails with the following details:

Settings file:
C:\Users\lucky\Desktop\HealthCare\android\settings.gradle (line: 3)

Error Message:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* Where:
Settings file 'C:\Users\lucky\Desktop\HealthCare\android\settings.gradle' line: 3
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating settings 'android'.

Attempts to Resolve the Issue

1. Tried Using an Older Version:

   • When using an older version of React Native, I encountered a similar issue:

     :ReactNative:Running '[node, C:\Users\lucky\Desktop\newproject\node_modules\@react-native-community\cli\build\bin.js, config]' command failed.
     FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
     * Where:
     Script 'C:\Users\lucky\Desktop\newproject\node_modules\@react-native-community\cli-platform-android\native_modules.gradle' line: 401
     * What went wrong:
     A problem occurred evaluating script.
     > Process 'command 'node'' finished with non-zero exit value 1
     BUILD FAILED in 8s
     

2. Development Environment Setup:

   • I have verified my development environment setup using:

     npx react-native doctor
     

   • No major issues were found with the setup.

Additional Details

• React Native Version: Tried with both v0.74.2 and v0.75.4
• Error on Latest Version: The same error (autolinkLibrariesFromCommand failure) occurs on the latest version.
• OS: Windows

Any suggestions for resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
