7.3.0 instant launch crash React Native 0.74.5

[hamdij0maa]

Install rive-react-native 7.3.0
instant crash android on launch.

Hi @hamdij0maa can you share

• the .riv file you're using
• the code
• the crash log

[mlazari]

I see the same issue (crash on app start) but only on iOS in an expo project.

    "expo": "~51.0.31",
    "react-native": "0.74.5",
    "rive-react-native": "^7.3.0",

It crashes even if I remove all usages of rive-react-native in the code so I don't think it's related to a specific animation file or code.

Downgrading to 7.2.0 fixes the crash.

I tried the same version 7.3.0 of rive-react-native in a bare React Native project with the same react-native version (0.74.5) and it works well there.

Same issue as @mlazari

[mlazari]

I guess my issue is the same as #261

I'm having the same issue here after upgrading to React Native 0.74.5. However, my Rive version is 6.2.3.
Crash Free users on the version with React Native 0.74.5 dropped to 64% (from 98%+).

I can see a SIGABRT crash on libc.so and the logs also show librive-android.so on the stack trace. We need this fixed ASAP. Could you please help us? Is there a Rive version that has been tested with React Native 0.74.5?

Hey all. 👋 I've just started working on updating the repo to support the latest couple of versions of RN. Step one is getting all of our packages upgraded to more recent versions while still using RN 0.72.x. This'll make it easier to do the next couple of upgrades. If anyone wants to give it a test on a 0.72.x project, that'd be super helpful: #267

[PierreCapo]

@lancesnider @HayesGordon sorry in advance for pinging you, but do you have any visibility on when this is going to be fixed?
This issue has been opened for 3 months and makes Rive completely unusable.
It starts to get annoying as customers, as we paid to get some Rive assets that we can not use in our apps...

For tracking purpose, here is the other issue opened:
#268

[HayesGordon]

Hi @PierreCapo, does the latest version of Rive React Native not solve this for you?

[Maniae]

@HayesGordon Still having the same issue with rive-react-native 8.1.0

Using s.dependency "RiveRuntime", "6.3.3" according to podspec

Related to this issue on rive-ios: rive-app/rive-ios#345

I'm cheating by not waiting for the 8.2 release, and I'm instead using:

"rive-react-native": "github:rive-app/rive-react-native#pull/274/head",

in my package.json . It's compiling against RN 0.76/Expo 52. 👍

Now there's just the small matter of making Rive compatible with the new architecture. 🙏

Damn - I don't know what happened but now it fails again on the yoga symbols. Perhaps I had an older version cached somewhere when I thought it was working earlier. Sigh.

also stuck on this issue. I have a test working with rive-react-native 8.1.0 and RN 0.76.1, but in the app with RN 0.74.5 I haven't gotten any version of rive-react-native to work. Also holding us up. Have seen some comments suggesting Firebase may be part of the problem and we are using Firebase in our project while the test project does not.

[leemhenson]

we are using Firebase in our project

we are also using https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase

[PierreCapo]

Same, most likely an issue related with the static linking for frameworks enforced by React-Native Firebase

[rlods]

Any updates on that topic?

Crash at launch still happens when trying to use [email protected] released in November

• Issue appeared from 7.3.0
• No pb when using 7.2.0

context: React-Native 0.76 & Expo 52

cc @HayesGordon would you know if someone from Rive is aware and following the issue?

Thanks in advance 🙏

[uglyghosty]

Still crashing on 0.76, no expo, also using firebase

[evelant]

8.2.0 also crashes, exactly the same. @HayesGordon

Fixed in the last commit e9fa101 🎉 Working on my side

[lancesnider]

Yep, this one should be working for all of you now with 8.3.0. Please let me know if you run into any issues with this. Sorry it took so long!

[mlazari]

8.3.0 is working on my side too 🎉 Thank you for the fix!
