react-native problem in 2017.3: error: unknown option `--no-packager'

After downloading 2017.3 and running one of my existing react-native configurations, I get the following error, which I didn't get before:

/Users/cmarstall/.nvm/versions/node/v7.2.0/bin/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules/react-native-cli run-android --no-packager

error: unknown option `--no-packager'

 

I googled for that flag, and looked for it in my node_modules/react-native/local-cli/ tree. It doesn't seem to really exist.

Nor do I see a way to get rid of it. I already specify command line arguments in the configuration ("--scheme Debug") so I presume that would override any default arguments - but it doesn't. Anyway this is blocking me from debugging, please help!

seems the option is only available since 0.42. see https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/local-cli/runAndroid/runAndroid.js:

{
command: '--no-packager',
description: 'Do not launch packager while building',

}

Any way to get WebStorm to stop using it? Or do I need to upgrade? (big job)

I've logged https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-29966 to check react-native project version when starting run command to avoid using `--no-packager` with old versions.

For now, upgrading project react-native seems to be the only option:(
