Hey! 👋

The issue doesn't seem to contain a minimal reproduction.

Could you provide a snack or a link to a GitHub repository under your username that reproduces the problem?

Hi @ds-shubhamsharma! First of all, your reproduction seems to be private as I get 404 when I try to check it 😞

Which exact version of Gesture Handler do you use? I can see that you've said ^2.25.0, but it can also mean that you have 2.26.0. Either way, it should work and I don't get any compilation errors (but remember that 2.26.0 is meant to be used with at least 0.78)

[m-bert]

Also, it seems to be the problem with node, have you read this post on StackOverflow?

Thanks @m-bert for responding to this issue.

Actually, I'm only facing the problem with the gesture handler. but it still shows up occasionally.
related to the 'node' command This issue not showing now
I'm using React Native 0.76.7, react-native-gesture-handler v2.25.0, and Kotlin 1.9.25. The project was working fine, but the error appeared suddenly after syncing Gradle.

Interestingly, my colleagues working on the same project setup are not facing this issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The project was working fine, but the error appeared suddenly after syncing Gradle.

have you tried cleaning cradle cachesand performing clean build?

@ds-shubhamsharma
In my case, the error related to "Execution failed for task ':react-native-gesture-handler:compileDebugKotlin" was resolved after completely reinstalling Node.js, Java, and the Android SDK from scratch.

I previously had Volta installed and was using Homebrew. I removed both and did a clean setup without using any helper version managers.

"react": "19.0.0",
"react-native": "0.79.2",
"react-native-gesture-handler": "^2.25.0",

i would like to understand why using homebrew for install node leads to having issue with this lib?

i think the main problem was in Volta
