Could not resolve all task dependencies for configuration ':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'

Question

I am developing a mobile app with using react-native on WebStorm and trying to test it via an Android emulator(Pixel API 28) which I created via using AVD Manager of Android Studio. The problem is when I run the react-native run-android command, I get the following error:

Could not determine the dependencies of task ':app:preDebugBuild'.
> Could not resolve all task dependencies for configuration             
':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'.
   > Could not resolve com.facebook.react:react-native:+.
     Required by:
         project :app

         > Unable to load Maven meta-data from

I tried to clean up the cache with using the command below but it did not worked:

npm cache clean --force

I could not find some similar problems on the web and I am not sure what to show related with this problem.

When I try to run one of my previous project which was perfectly running, after getting this error and I saw that it also throws the same error. Similarly, when I create a new react-native project and try to run it, then I also got the same error. How can I solve this?

I am still loking for a solution. Anyone knows how to solve it?

Answer 1

I finally figured out the problem. I was connecting to internet via my school's network and it was restricting some downloads. So, that is why I got this error. For the ones who encountered with the same error, try to connect to the link in the error to if it is forbidden or not.
