No Script URL provided.Make you sure the package manager is runnig or you have embedded a js bundler ı cannot to metro bundler in debug mode in real device ,it has problem 0.80.2d

Description

I started experiencing this issue on my physical device. Even though I am in debug mode, my Metro device cannot connect to the network. Both are on the same Wi-Fi network, but they cannot establish a connection. I read the previous discussions, but no solution was found. this problem in code

 override func bundleURL() -> URL? {
#if DEBUG
    RCTBundleURLProvider.sharedSettings().jsBundleURL(forBundleRoot: "index")
#else
    Bundle.main.url(forResource: "main", withExtension: "jsbundle")
#endif
  }
``` Please fix this.

Im solved my problem,you should uncheck for install builds only options , it is location Build Phases -> embed pods frameworks under

Unsure why but this broke after upgrading to 0.81.4.

Simulator works fine, only physical device is broken.
Looks like the issue is RCTBundleURLProvider.sharedSettings().jsBundleURL(forBundleRoot: "index") is return an empty URL on physical devices.

Updating this line to the direct IP of the host is a workaround.

class ReactNativeDelegate: RCTDefaultReactNativeFactoryDelegate {
  override func sourceURL(for bridge: RCTBridge) -> URL? {
    self.bundleURL()
  }

  override func bundleURL() -> URL? {
#if DEBUG
//    return RCTBundleURLProvider.sharedSettings().jsBundleURL(forBundleRoot: "index")
    // Your host IP
    return URL(string: "http://192.168.1.180:8081/index.bundle?platform=ios&dev=true")
#else
    Bundle.main.url(forResource: "main", withExtension: "jsbundle")
#endif
  }
}

You'll also need to expose the build server on all net interfaces. react-native start --host 0.0.0.0

Update

In my case, the Build Phase "Bundle React Native code and images" was malformed. Fixing this solve the issue with debug and release builds

@gabemeola what did you eventually do in "Bundle React Native code and images" Build Phase to get it to work?

@g-anwuli

@g-anwuli, I had a similar issue, but it was happening because in my build phase, it was trying to run multiple commands using with-environment.sh script from React Native.

What I did was to apply a fix from issue #54140, and it worked for me. I hope it works for you too!

@uqmessias

@uqmessias Thanks it worked.

@uqmessias

Hi @uqmessias @g-anwuli

Just to make sure I'm doing the right thing...

The exact thing you did was applying the davidliu's suggested change directly in the react-native node_modules's folder and applied a patch for it?

Not exactly on the node_modules. What I'm doing is to apply these changes as a patch using yarn patch react-native, updating the necessary files, finishing the patch, and commiting the changes. You can do the same, but if you're using NPM, you can use patch-package instead.

I had the same error when upgraded to 0.81.5, could not build on device and also staging version of the app.

What happened was, when I upgraded @sentry/react-native, had also to update React Native build phase to make it work on 0.81.1+. This change was not creating an ios bundle, so I was keep getting this error.

Once I brought back the removed code and modified a script again, bundle was built and error disappeared.

My updated code inside Bundle React Native code and images phase:

set -e

WITH_ENVIRONMENT="../node_modules/react-native/scripts/xcode/with-environment.sh"
REACT_NATIVE_XCODE="../node_modules/react-native/scripts/react-native-xcode.sh"
SENTRY_XCODE="../node_modules/@sentry/react-native/scripts/sentry-xcode.sh"

# Bundle JavaScript first
/bin/sh -c "$WITH_ENVIRONMENT $REACT_NATIVE_XCODE"

# Then upload source maps to Sentry
/bin/sh -c "$WITH_ENVIRONMENT $SENTRY_XCODE"

problem for me was after migrating to swift, bundleURL was not going into the DEBUG case

#if DEBUG
    // NEEDS TO GO HERE
    RCTBundleURLProvider.sharedSettings().jsBundleURL(forBundleRoot: "index")
#else
    // WENT HERE
    Bundle.main.url(forResource: "main", withExtension: "jsbundle")
#endif
  }

I would double check if it's hitting DEBUG case, if not this solution fixed it for me #49173 (comment)

@TonyFTannous-Byd

Hitting this on RN 0.83.4 + New Architecture + Expo 55 + Objective-C AppDelegate. Both simulator and physical device affected.

Diagnosis

Added logging inside bundleURL to trace the resolution chain:

- (NSURL *)bundleURL {
#if DEBUG
  BOOL isRunning = [RCTBundleURLProvider isPackagerRunning:@"localhost"];
  NSString *hostPort = [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] packagerServerHostPort];
  NSURL *url = [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] jsBundleURLForBundleRoot:@"index"];
  NSLog(@"isPackagerRunning=%@ hostPort='%@' url=%@",
        isRunning ? @"YES" : @"NO", hostPort ?: @"nil", url ?: @"nil");
  return url;
#else
  ...
#endif
}

Result:

isPackagerRunning=YES hostPort='nil' url=nil

Metro is reachable at localhost:8081 (200 OK), isPackagerRunning(localhost) returns YES, but packagerServerHostPort returns nil. This means guessPackagerHost inside packagerServerHostPort returns nil despite its individual pieces working correctly.

After calling setJsLocation:@"localhost" explicitly, packagerServerHostPort returns "localhost" and bundleURL returns a valid URL.

Workaround

Two things were needed together:

1. Add SWIFT_ACTIVE_COMPILATION_CONDITIONS = "$(inherited) DEBUG" to the app target's Debug build config (as @TonyFTannous-Byd suggested — it was set project-level but missing on the target itself)

2. Pre-set jsLocation before startReactNative in AppDelegate:

#if DEBUG
{
  NSString *ipPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"ip" ofType:@"txt"];
  NSString *ip = [[NSString stringWithContentsOfFile:ipPath encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil]
                  stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
  // Use ip.txt LAN IP for device builds, localhost for simulator/cloud-built dev clients
  BOOL isLanIp = [ip hasPrefix:@"192.168."] || [ip hasPrefix:@"10."];
  NSString *host = (ip.length > 0 && isLanIp) ? ip : @"localhost";
  [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] setJsLocation:host];
}
#endif

For us, the SWIFT flag alone wasn't sufficient — possibly because we have an Objective-C AppDelegate (not Swift). The setJsLocation bypass ensures packagerServerHostPort takes the jsLocation path and never hits the broken guessPackagerHost branch.

Also required for physical devices: runOnlyForDeploymentPostprocessing = 0 on the "Bundle React Native code and images" build phase so ip.txt is generated in Debug builds (was set to 1, meaning it only ran during Archive).

Environment

RN 0.83.4
Expo SDK 55
New Architecture enabled (RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1)
Objective-C AppDelegate (inherited from older RN versions)
Xcode 16+
