I am having verifyReleaseResources Failed issue while generating release build..it works fine in development mode

Did you solve this? For more information, this is the error that I'm receiving:

It's unable to find the build folder resources. There's about 200 similar lines to the one above referring to that same folder not being recognized.

And just like the original comment, this is only happening during './gradlew assembleRelease'

We just got this error without modifying anything on the project and is preventing us from releasing.

This is the error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':react-native-google-signin:verifyReleaseResources'.

Not exactly the same, but I am also getting a similar issue:

Task :react-native-google-signin:processDebugAndroidTestResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

I just fixed this issue by replace ./gradlew assembleRelease by ./gradlew app:assembleRelease

with Fastlane, you can try

gradle(task: "app:assembleRelease") instead of gradle(task: "assembleRelease")
