'ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle'

When I run

npx react-native run-android --variant=release

in RN 0.61.3 and I receive this error message.

ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle'

The build works fine when debugging without the release variant.

android react-native

Solution 1:^[1]

Go to android/app/src/main/
Create one more folder of the name assets
It will look like android/app/src/main/assets
Then run it. Absolutely workable.

Solution 2:^[2]

Right click the app folder New->Folder->Assests Folder

Solution 3:^[3]

i had the assets folder already, but mistakenly had kept on being in the android folder, doing cd .. helped me and the run the command npx react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res

Solution 4:^[4]

You can use this command:

npx mkdirp android/app/src/main/assets/ && react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res/

Solution 5:^[5]

You should use this command to create assets folder in android.

Run this command in project directory.

react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res

Please use this, Its help me.
