I have this script that I did not write, that is supposed to build .ipas of different build flavours:

import path from "path";
import { execSync } from "child_process";

      RCT_NO_LAUNCH_PACKAGER: true,
      CI_IOS_VERSION_NAME: version
      // CI_IOS_BUILD_NUMBER: build,
    })
  };
};

const buildProcess = ({ xcodebuildArgs }) => {

I do not know if there is a problem with the script, but it fails with the error below:

• Did you get it resolved yet? – der_michael Commented Oct 22, 2019 at 18:42
• @der_michael, I did get this resolved with lots of help. – Daniel Commented Oct 22, 2019 at 19:08
• 1 @Daniel can you please add some solution, I am also stuck with the same issue. – Satish Mavani Commented Dec 18, 2019 at 7:48
• @SatishMavani, I could never 100% pinpoint what the problem was, but it seemed that it had to do with not having the correct cer files and pem files. As I mentioned before I got a lot of help from the people who originated these files. They went in and installed the correct files. – Daniel Commented Dec 18, 2019 at 14:50

I fixed this issue by running the following mands:

gem list | grep sqlite3
gem install sqlite3 --platform=ruby
rvm use system --default
