# Bitrise Build Issue Report template

## Description of the issue

I recently updated my RN app from 0.59.X to 0.62.2. Got everything running locally and am able to build by running `cd android` and then `./gradlew app:assembleRelease`. One odd thing about running it locally, if I try `./android/gradlew app:assembleRelease` it doesnt work, giving the error `project 'app' not found in root project 'XXXXXX'.`

With that said when I run `./gradlew tasks` locally I don’t see assembleRelease in the list of tasks yet it works when I run it..

Either way, I am trying to now get this running on bitrise but am running into similar issues. I have tried both the Android Build step and the Gradle Runner with no luck.

When running the Android Build app:assembleRelease I get the error `Failed to find buildable variants, error: variant: assembleRelease not found in any module`.

So in a previous script step I added `./android/gradlew tasks` to view my tasks and they do not match my local tasks and are very limited:

* * *

Tasks runnable from root project

* * *

Build Setup tasks

* * *

init - Initializes a new Gradle build.

wrapper - Generates Gradle wrapper files.

Help tasks

* * *

buildEnvironment - Displays all buildscript dependencies declared in root project ‘git’.

components - Displays the components produced by root project ‘git’. [incubating]

dependencies - Displays all dependencies declared in root project ‘git’.

dependencyInsight - Displays the insight into a specific dependency in root project ‘git’.

dependentComponents - Displays the dependent components of components in root project ‘git’. [incubating]

help - Displays a help message.

model - Displays the configuration model of root project ‘git’. [incubating]

outgoingVariants - Displays the outgoing variants of root project ‘git’.

projects - Displays the sub-projects of root project ‘git’.

properties - Displays the properties of root project ‘git’.

tasks - Displays the tasks runnable from root project ‘git’.

So not exactly sure where i’m going wrong with gradle but looking for any advice..

## Environment:

Happens on Bitrise XCode 11.5.X on MacOS 10.15.4 Catalina

**Which build Step causes the issue and which version of the step?**

Android Build 0.10.1

## Reproducibility

- _Does a “Rebuild” help? (You can trigger a rebuild from the Build’s page, by clicking the “Rebuild” button in the top right corner of a finished build)_ : YES
- _Does the issue happen sporadically, or every time?_ : Every time
- _Does upgrading the build Step to the latest version help?_ : NO
- _When did the issue start?_ : After updating RN

Hi @walkaboutsupport!

Sorry about the delay! Are you sure your module is called `assembleRelease`? What happened when you used the Gradle Runner to run that task, can you include a build URL about that?

I’m not 100% sure how React Native handles this, but the default variant should be simply `release`, and `assembleRelease` is a the Gradle command used to build the release variant.
