I'm trying to build React Native locally. I followed the Facebook instructions from Building React Native from source but when I do the command react-native run-android, I receive the following error:

:ReactAndroid:downloadBoost Invalid cookie header: "Set-Cookie: sf_mirror_attempt="boost:iweb:boost/1.57.0/boost_1_57_0.zip"; expires=120; Path=/". Invalid 'expires' attribute: 120

:ReactAndroid:downloadBoost FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

  • What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':ReactAndroid:downloadBoost'. javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Any ideas as to what I may have done wrong?

The problem is that your computer is not able to download boost_1_57_0.zip file with the https path that is in your settings (invalid certificate).

Go to your project's project_root/node_modules/react-native/ReactAndroid/build.gradle file and change the src attribute on the task downloadBoost part to any proxy that you find to boost_1_57_0.zip and it should work.

I received a similar error and the error went away after using the correct Android NDK (currently android-ndk-r10e). But if you've followed the instructions, as you've said, then that is most likely not your problem.
