Recently I have began development in react-native and have been trying to build an app. I successfully implemented react navigation initially, but after I tried to install and use other packages I failed and gave up and tried to remove the. Somehow I ended up messing up my project and even basic navigation fails.

As of now I am simply trying to create a react native project and running it on ios using XCode simulator. Following this tutorial, https://reactnavigation.org/docs/hello-react-navigation. When I try running the most simple example given I get this error. After carefully following all the previous steps.

ERROR Invariant Violation: requireNativeComponent: >"RNSScreenStackHeaderConfig" was not found in the UIManager.

     This error is located at:
        in RNSScreenStackHeaderConfig (at HeaderConfig.tsx:128)
        in HeaderConfig (at NativeStackView.native.tsx:223)

        in AppContainer (at renderApplication.js:43)
        in Twisten(RootComponent) (at renderApplication.js:60)

This is the code I am running.

import * as React from 'react';
    import { View, Text } from 'react-native';
    import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
    import { createNativeStackNavigator } from '@react-navigation/native-stack';
    
    function HomeScreen() {
      return (
        <View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
          <Text>Home Screen</Text>
        </View>
      );
    }
    
    const Stack = createNativeStackNavigator();
    
    function App() {
      return (
        <NavigationContainer>
          <Stack.Navigator>
            <Stack.Screen name="Home" component={HomeScreen} />
          </Stack.Navigator>
        </NavigationContainer>
      );
    }
    
    export default App;

I am running it using the command react-native run-ios

I would expect this to work and show a simple homescreen however it errors when running the code. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

I faced with same issue and I killed metro then instead of

npx react-native start

I commanded

npx react-native run-android

to rebuild everything. I think it happened in case of me because I installed packages without stopping the metro
