Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'. > Android resource linking failed can longer build RN android version

The android version of my React native app now refuses to build. I have updated the compiledSKD version to 28 as suggested in this post.

This is the error I get when I attempt to build on a physical device:

  • What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.

    Android resource linking failed Output: /Users/someguy/projects/third/someapp/android/app/build/intermediates/incremental/mergeDebugResources/merged.dir/values/values.xml:422: error: resource android:attr/fontVariationSettings not found.

  • Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

  • Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

BUILD FAILED in 5s 133 actionable tasks: 2 executed, 131 up-to-date

I've also double checked my AndroidManifest.xml file to see if I have any hanging brackets as suggested in this post

I resolved this issue by adding androidXCore="1.6.0" in myApp/android/build.gradle to look like this

        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 29
        targetSdkVersion = 29
        androidXCore="1.6.0"

Did you run the bundle command?

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

And close the existing packager and re-open packager.
