New RN project create successful, but built failed by Xcode.

Error:

Error: Could not find node. Make sure it is in bash PATH or set the NODE_BINARY environment variable.

Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code

node installed by homebrew, and Intel mbp doesn’t have this error.

How to resolve this error?

Node in the PATH

npm -g bin
/opt/homebrew/bin

echo $PATH
/Users/chia/.pyenv/shims:/Users/chia/.rbenv/shims:/Users/chia/.rbenv/bin:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin

    @pekanchuan ‘s answer at https://stackoverflow.com/a/67342683/6512858 worked for me.

    sudo ln -s $(which node) /usr/local/bin/node

    I would like to add though that if this command says /usr/local/bin/node: File exists you need to know that the link already exists to maybe a different version of node.
    In my case, to install yarn, brew installed a separate nodejs v15 and linked the file to its binary.
    Although I use nvm to have nodejs v14 and nodejs v16. This extra nodejs was the reason for the error mentioned in question.

    Simply run sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/node to remove the link followed by the command sudo ln -s $(which node) /usr/local/bin/node to create correct link.

    On my Mac M1 the folder /usr/local/bin was missing so I had the error :

    ln: /usr/local/bin/node: No such file or directory

    So here is what I did :

    cd /usr/local
sudo mkdir bin
sudo ln -s $(which node) /usr/local/bin/node
