Unable to load script from assets 'index.android.bundle',Make sure your bundle is packaged

Question

I have made sure that bundler and emulator are running.

If I use this commend

react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.android.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res 

It might work but refresh won't happen when I press rr in emulator. I have also tried reversal of abd adb reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081. Nothing works for me.

I had this issue after having had it work for the past couple days. I realized that I had manually configured a proxy. As soon as I turned that off, it worked.
