I installed react-native-pdf and now when I run "npx react-native run-android", it fails with the following:

* What went wrong:Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugNativeLibs'.> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade> More than one file was found with OS independent path 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'

Can anyone help me use the package react-native-pdf?

I had the same issue and i resolved it by adding the following to android/app/build.gradle

android {packagingOptions {pickFirst 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libc++_shared.so'}/** rest of your code here **/

}

add this to your app/build.gradle

android {// yout existing codepackagingOptions {pickFirst '**/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst '**/libfbjni.so'}}

Open the project in Android Studio android and clean the projectBuild -> Clean Project

Add this code to "/android/app/build.gradle"

android {packagingOptions {pickFirst 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libc++_shared.so'pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libc++_shared.so'}/** .... **/}

So run this on the terminal

$ cd android/$ ./gradlew cleanBuildCache$ cd ..$ sudo npx react-native run-android

For us, it was caused by react-native-pdf.

So either, eject the project and update build.gradle same as other answers say or, get rid of it if not used or you may replace it with rn-pdf-reader-js

For me its gradle cache issue,I fixed it by running running the following command in the project's root directory:

cd android

and after

./gradlew clean

i changed minSdkVersion to 21 in "android/app/build.gradle".

defaultConfig {// TODO: Specify your own unique Application ID (https://developer.android.com/studio/build/application-id.html).applicationId "com.example.custom_epub_view"minSdkVersion 21targetSdkVersion 29versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()versionName flutterVersionName}

android build.gradle file under allprojects add following

allprojects {configurations.all {resolutionStrategy {force 'com.facebook.react:react-native:0.65.2' //select Version you used}}
