You have a permission error it seems ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I have exactly same issue. I run command line as an administrator and still get this error. Can you help me with fixing this issues

[DFelten]

This solution helped me.

Better to run command prompt always as an administrator, one could find the steps to achieve on windows 7/10 here - https://www.cnet.com/how-to/always-run-a-program-in-administrator-mode-in-windows-10/

Now my issue is also got fixed.

First, Go to android folder
cd android
Now clean the project...
gradlew clean //for Mac users, change gradlew to ./gradlew
Now run the build process again in the root folder
cd..
react-native run-android
Everything Now Looks ok

One issue I had is that my program was still running when I was trying to do ng build --prod

Close vs code and run the command through the cmd as admin solved to me.

@Fl4v10
Had a similar error — regarding a completely different issue (webpack + kss-node + CleanWebpackPlugin).

Read your comment and thought closing all "open editors" might do the trick, and voila, no need to close "vs code".

This is a permissions issue. Just open your VS Code (or whatever you use) with Administrator privileges, or use your company option for it (might be another user or just another option when you right click .exe files). If this doesn't works, then check if there is another application using this folder, that might also block the access to your files and show up this same permissions error message.

I'm using Webstorm and for me, this was the only solution that fixed the problem

uncheck "File->Settings->System Settings->sychronization->use safe write"

"Run As Administrator on Note.js command prompt"

Run cd android && gradlew clean

Just close and open your terminal again...Then run your command

[Ajmal0197]

run:
rm -rf $GRADLE_HOME/caches/build-cache-*
then restart the project

Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, lstat 'D:\reactnative\MyBaby\node_modules .staging\react-native-vector-icons-2612cf43\Fonts\Zocial.ttf'

Create a metro.config.js file in the project root folder and paste the following code into it and save it.

`var getBlacklistRE = function getBlacklistRE() {
return new RegExp(
"(.\android\.|.\fixtures\.|node_modules[\\]react[\\]dist[\\].|website\node_modules\.|heapCapture\bundle.js|.\tests\.)$"
);
};

module.exports = {
resolver: {
blacklistRE: getBlacklistRE(),
},
};
`

that worked for me

[KrisLau]

Cleaning the metro cache with react-native start --reset-cache worked for me with a slightly different EPERM error: operation not permitted, lstat '...\android\app\build\intermediates\dex\debug\mergeLibDexDebug\classes_31.dex'

[ghost]

The solution here worked for me: http://bitstopixels.blogspot.com/2017/04/react-native-windows-10-eperm-operation.html

cd <app_root>/android
./gradlew clean

[Fox-Alexandra]

Eu consegui solucionar reiniciando o emulador, pausando e excluindo a aplicação dele. Depois de fazer isso é só rodar o comando yarn react-native run-android que ele vai dar o na bulid

[Witillan]

'npm install --cache /tmp/empty-cache' It worked for me
