com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade Build Error

If you run into the below error when trying to run your React-Native Android build, many online resources recommend:

• Clearing the Java JDK processes on windows
• the ol’ deleting and reinstalling node_modules
• deleting the /android/build folder
• Invalidating build and caches in Android Studio

None fo this worked unfortunately.

Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugJavaResource'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade
   > File 'com.android.builder.files.ZipCentralDirectory@148b205c' was deleted, but previous version not found in cache

The solution was to go into the /Android folder and run ./gradlew clean.

Once successful, I was able to build the app again. Great success.
