For me the problem was over this cli: 

@react-native-community/cli-platform-android

The problematic version: 

3.0.0-alpha.7

Just run this to install the latest stable release:

npm i @react-native-community/[email protected]

UPDATE 2020:

if this workaround doesn't work now, take a look over this link to use the latest version from the repo, and look the version of your cli to compare and use the correct one:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android

Had the same problem on linux. All I had to do was just installing npx globally to my machine, that's all.

sudo npm install -g npx

This happens because of lines 155 and 159 in native_modules.gradle:

def command = "${npx} --quiet react-native config"

...

cmdProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command)

It tries to execute the command but command npx is not found.

I have copied and replaced this file from the older project and it did the trick for now.

node_modules@react-native-community\cli-platform-android\native_modules.gradle'

For me, I had not closed a tag in my AndroidManifest.xml file.

I had same issue and to get it sorted you have downgrade your react-native version or create project with custom react-native version .
react-native init AwesomeProject --version X.XX.X
react-native init myfirstProject --version 0.60.0
(from official react native documentation) .
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started
Now you can either run it directly from Command line or open Android studio and then open Android folder of react native app in that ( it will sync gradles files and build ).

A temporary fix was suggested on github about making changes to your native_modules.gradle file. You need to go to that file location YourProjectDir\node_modules@react-native-community\cli-platform-android\native_modules.gradle and at line 153, change npx --quiet react-native config to npx.cmd --quiet react-native config.
