[janmallari]

Have you fixed this? @nitinpatelm

[nitinpatelm]

no am not able to fix it @janmallari

[szdziedzic]

@nitinpatelm what's the output of the expo-doctor for your project?

[Richard-97]

I'm facing the same issue for 2-3 days, expo-doctor returns no warnings/errors.

i am getting the same issue after upgrading to expo 51. Any update?

[luffy-taro]

Similar issue with [email protected], build gets stuck at following on eas and fails after timeout. No issues reported by expo doctor, fails both locally and on EAS. Though development build works. Metro bundler along with expo export seems to be working.

Task :expo-modules-core:lintVitalAnalyzeRelease

Using openjdk 17.

Edit - it was an issue with one of the dependencies nativewind 4

How did you figure it out, so I know how to deal with future issues like this?

Removed dependencies one by one to see if build works. I don't know if there's better way.

I have nativewind 4 in my project. How did you fix it?

[luffy-taro]

Tracking issue here: nativewind/nativewind#1139

@margretheluth see this. You might need to switch between different minor versions.

I am having the same issue with Expo 52 on iOS

[disolaterX]

Same issue with Expo 52, happens for android build only tho using nativewind v4

[Richard-97]

After fully removing nativewind from the project, the build worked. I installed nativewind version 4.0.1., reinstall node_modules, prebuild expo and it worked. Hope it helps.

Same issue on Android with

• Expo v52
• Nativewind 4.0.36

The issue happen when I add the import "../global.css"; in my root layout file.

[d-haxton]

My tailwind config was including all node_modules causing everything to hang. Was unable to get any error message until locally:

./node_modules/.bin/expo export:embed --eager --platform ios --dev false

Which gave me:

warn - Your `content` configuration includes a pattern which looks like it's accidentally matching all of `node_modules` and can cause serious performance issues.
warn - Pattern: `./**/*.js`

Removed that pattern from my tailwind.config.js and everything worked again.
