I've been trying to build my React Native application for release, but I always get this error:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
Can't really understand why. It's not my first app but it's the first time I have this error. I only have this when I want to assemble the application. The development mode works fine.
Here is the Stacktrace:
