React-native: Example Build failed at :ReactAndroid:prepareBoost because of 'boost_1_57_0.zip' is not a ZIP file

Created on 24 Jan 2016 · 3Comments · Source: facebook/react-native

I was trying to build the Movies example but I got:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not expand ZIP '/home/jobsamuel/dev/react-native/ReactAndroid/build/downloads/boost_1_57_0.zip'.
> archive is not a ZIP archive

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64.

This is the exception stack trace:

org.gradle.api.GradleException: Could not expand ZIP '/home/jobsamuel/dev/react-native/ReactAndroid/build/downloads/boost_1_57_0.zip'.

My guess is that you started doing a build and then cancelled it before it finished, so you will need to delete /home/jobsamuel/dev/react-native/ReactAndroid/build/downloads/boost_1_57_0.zip and run it again :)

If this doesn't help, please repost to StackOverflow

Hey jobsamuel, thanks for reporting this issue!

React Native, as you've probably heard, is getting really popular and truth is we're getting a bit overwhelmed by the activity surrounding it. There are just too many issues for us to manage properly.

If you don't know how to do something or something is not working as you expect but not sure it's a bug, please ask on StackOverflow with the tag react-native or for more real time interactions, ask on Discord in the #react-native channel.
If this is a feature request or a bug that you would like to be fixed, please report it on Product Pains. It has a ranking feature that lets us focus on the most important issues the community is experiencing.
We welcome clear issues and PRs that are ready for in-depth discussion. Please provide screenshots where appropriate and always mention the version of React Native you're using. Thank you for your contributions!
