Another "React Native version mismatch" question

Expo Development Tools
1

Hi,

I’ve inherited a project that hasn’t been updated in about two years, and am having a little trouble getting started. I opened a github issue but am maybe thinking this is the right place instead.

I installed the latest version of XCode, and when I try to launch the iOS simulator (from expo start ), I see the dreaded error

console.error: "React Native version mismatch.

JavaScript version: 0.55.4
Native version: 0.63.2-undefined

Make sure that you have rebuilt the native code. If the problem persists try clearing the Watchman and packager caches with `watchman watch-del-all && react-native start --reset-cache`."

I’m a little bit unclear on where these version numbers are coming from.

package.json contains, among other things, the following lines:

"dependencies": {
  ...
  "expo": "^28.0.1",
  ...
  "react-native": "^0.55.4",
  ...
}

I changed this from "react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-28.0.1.tar.gz" (and before that, it was "react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-28.0.0.tar.gz" ; nothing has worked so far).

Meanwhile, app.json specifies "sdkVersion": "28.0.0" .

expo diagnostics:

  Expo CLI 3.27.7 environment info:

      react-native: ^0.55.4 => 0.55.4 
      react-navigation: 2.17.0 => 2.17.0 
    npmGlobalPackages:
      expo-cli: 3.27.7
    Expo Workflow: managed

I believe version 28 specifies react-native version 0.55.4… so where is the newer “native version” of “0.63.2-undefined” coming from?
