title: React Native - Port 8081 already in use, packager is either not running or not running correctly Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 2
body: <p>I'm trying to get up and running with React Native and I am seeing the message below in Xcode:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Port 8081 already in use, packager is either not running or not running correctly</p>
  <p>Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 2</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>I went to the <a href="https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/troubleshooting" rel="noreferrer">React Native troubleshooting page</a> and tried to kill the port 8081 processes, but I'm still getting the same issue.</p>
  <p>Here is a screenshot of what I am seeing in Xcode:</p>
