same issue ... please give any solutions ... I am using react native upgrade version like react-native v0.57.7

It's weird but this may be caused by white space character in your path. It is a good habit to always avoid special characters like Chinese characters or white spaces in any file/folder/variable naming.

I have a resolved this issue in my side, here is the steps:

1. copy node_modules/react-native/script to node_modules/react-native/glog-0.3.5 or node_modules/react-native/glog-0.3.4
2. go to node_modules/react-native/glog-0.3.5 to run the ios-install-xxxxx.sh
3. run ios-configure-xxxx.sh --> this script try to build the glog and genterate some configure file(eg: config.h)
4. try to build again

[sunnylqm]

@pengcao1 This should already be fixed in 0.57.8. Try that version first. If the issue persists please open a new issue and give more detailed information.

[lmyl]

Thank you for your suggestion. After research, I found that I can solve this problem by the following methods.
cd node_modules/react-native && scripts/ios-install-third-party.sh && cd third-party && cd glog-0.3.5 && ./configure && cd ../../../../

[pengcao1]

@sunnylqm yes, maybe you're right. but, I think nobody would upgrade to 0.57.8 for resolving only this issue. that make risks...

[sunnylqm]

@pengcao1 Patch version is quite safe to update, which I think is a common sense. Otherwise how people fix things? And what do people update for? If not for resolving issues?

[ajijoyo]

Even on react native 0.57.8 this issue still appear, when successfull ./configure then run react-native run-ios and that config.h suddenly disappear

[sunnylqm]

@ajijoyo Open a new issue with detailed information

check if any folder has a space between the names. For example if your folder of your project is "My Projects" the config.h file can not be regreat when run-ios or run on the Xcode. Also make sure that your command line tools on the Preferences->Locations is the latest Xcode. This works for me perfect
