I am trying to create and run a custom expo react-native mobile app. Every time I create a new expo app with npx create-expo-app@latest, I always get the following error when using npx expo run:android;

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Could not determine the dependencies of task ‘:app:compileDebugJavaWithJavac’.

Cannot query the value of this provider because it has no value available.

Any information that can help remedy this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

npx expo run:android

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use ‘–warning-mode all’ to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.10.2/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.
