How to fix cp issue during build with ninja?

I am currently compiling a custom recovery for an android phone. Sources are synced, device tree etc. all set up correctly. Now I am facing a rather banal-looking error during build. cp refuses to copy a directory, because -r is not specified in the build file.
I obviously tried to find the build file (rw_recovery/out/build_omni_daisy.ninja) and add the -r argument, but it seems to be regenerated at the beginning of every build process, as the process still fails and the previously changed line appears unchanged when opening the file after the attempted build.
These are the build steps:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch omni_daisy-eng #config for the device
mka bootimage #device uses boot.img as recovery
This command leaves me with the following error:
[ 99% 6883/6884] Prebuilt (rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/kernel)
FAILED: rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/kernel
/bin/bash -c "(rm -f /home/luca/rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/kernel) && (cp rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/obj/KERNEL_OBJ/arch/arm64/boot/ rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/kernel )"
cp: -r not specified; omitting directory 'rw_recovery/out/target/product/daisy/obj/KERNEL_OBJ/arch/arm64/boot/'
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
17:13:06 ninja failed with: exit status 1
I would love to hear any suggestions about how to force ninja to execute the command with -r. Alternatively, suggestions about where to find the file from which the above mentioned build file is recreated after executing mka command are much welcomed as well.

Cannot Find entry file index.ios.js in any of the project roots ["/Users/neo/newProjects/F2"]

Actual Behavior
Instead of launching, I get a red screen and this error message when launching a react native projects from scratch: Cannot Find entry file index.ios.js in any of the project roots ["/Users/neo/newProjects/F2"]
Expected behavior
Launch of a clean app starter
What I am trying to do
I'm trying to init and run a react-native project from scratch in the android and ios simulator, but I'm getting the following error.
What I have tried
I've tried doing the following:
Install via documentation
Moving through the install steps outlined here several times:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started.html
NPM Install
Performing NPM Install from within the project folder
Editing .profiles ( android )
editing the ~.profiles file, to set the android home variable.. this is what it looks like now:
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin" # Add RVM to PATH for scripting
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" $
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools`
Npm start
Running npm start and checking activity on the port, ( was the package manager running )
checking the port for activity
( forget how, verified its available )
Code that worked for someone...
I have also tried running this code in the terminal
react-native bundle \
--entry-file=index.ios.js \
--platform=ios \
--dev=false \
--assets-dest=./production/ios \
--bundle-output=./production/ios/ios.jsbundle
After reviewing this article https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/8664
And got this error message:
ENOENT: no such file or directory, open './production/ios/ios.jsbundle'
I noticed this suggestion
rerunning npm install and rnpm link
I tried running rnpm link, but got "no such command found"
after reading this article
Entry file error in react native from packager
In the same article I saw this:
"Figured out that after updating to RN 0.28 my app is spitting this issue due to incompatible dependencies. This is how I solved this problem"
rm -rf node_modules
npm cache clean
Then open package.json except react-native change all package versions to *
Then run
npm update --save
npm update --save-dev
Check package if package.json is updated with version numbers, if not verify from npmjs and update manually
Delete app from the device and try to run again
But I cannot discern what the advisor is doing here... and the logic behind it... if it seems relevant, can someone comment on this?
Terminal Output
I am getting this in the terminal:
Loading dependency graph, done.

react-native: 0.44.0
Homebrew 1.2.0
Just updated xcode
OSX 10.11.6 (15G1004)
What I notice
I notice that it seems to be looking in this file.. ["/Users/neo/newProjects/F2"] whereas in some locations on my machine the files are organized Users/Neo/... ( capital username ) ... and I sense that has something to do with this.
also, on project build it does throw this warning... not sure what it means...
"react-native#0.44.0" has unmet peer dependency "react#16.0.0-alpha.6"
Any suggestions or ideas?
update
tried changing directories out of the users folder and initializing
here is what I got in the stacktrace

Android chromium full browser apk build issues

I trying to build chromium android apk with this instruction
But on GN configuration step I have following problem after arguments file editing and saving
ERROR at //build/config/android/internal_rules.gni:1966:13: Script returned non-zero exit code.
exec_script("//build/android/gyp/find.py",

Then I try manually download google play services with command from this issue thread:
sudo ./build/android/play_services/update.py download
And get this warning:
Your version of the Google Play services library is not up to date. You might run into issues building or running the app. Please run `./build/android/play_services/update.py download` to retry downloading it.
After that I try to build full browser apk
ninja -C out/Default chrome_public_apk
and get error:
ninja: Entering directory `out/Default'
ninja: fatal: chdir to 'out/Default' - No such file or directory
Is there the way to fix this issue and build working apk file?

This works for me:
Run this command at chromium folder:
git rebase-update
gclient sync
Download google play services:
sudo ./build/android/play_services/update.py download
Configure GN: gn args opt/Full
Add this line to file: target_os="android"
Build apk with command: ninja -C opt/Full chrome_public_apk

Building webrtc library

I am trying to build webrtc android demo application. I was following README applied by the project. First thing was mentioned about gclient but when i tried to run it "no external or internal command". Then i got this link according to the this link i cloned the depot_tool repository but when at the step when i try to run gclient i got this
So after hours of trying i am not able to run it. if any one has experience with this WebRTC library please provide some help. Any guidance? Any Hlep will be appreciated

I heard few things were changed from svn to GIT. We tried building webRTC to windows7 using visual studio. See if you can use any parts on this.
Get depot_tools software and extract to a location (set this path in environment variable).
cd to depot_tools directory and hit 'gclient' (this should take sometime)
Install python 2.7 and put it path.
create a folder of your choice for webRTC and open command prompt there.
Now hit, gclient config http://webrtc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk
then, gclient sync.
Then set GYP_GENERATORS=msvs environment variable (use ninja if you want that).
Also set msvs_version=2012 (depending on your visual studio version)
now run, gclient runhooks --force
This should generate solutions files for your folder. fireup the libjingle/webrtc.sln files and start building it. I'm not sure if it builds as is. But we had hicupps with that.
See this link on WebRTC native development if you haven't already. From my personal experience building this tricky job initially.
Also note that links might be deprecated as they moved to git, don't know if they are still maintaining it.

How to compile WEBRTC On ubuntu
download script and run:
https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/build/install-build-deps.sh
./build/install-build-deps.sh --no-chromeos-fonts
Now download depot tools
$ git clone --depth 1 https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
Put it in Path
$ export PATH=`pwd`/depot_tools:"$PATH"
Define your settings:

make file to download the source
mkdir webrtc-checkout
cd webrtc-checkout
I chose branch 50 you can change it
gclient config https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/webrtc.git#branch-heads/50 --name=src
gclient sync --force --with_branch_heads
gclient sync --force --with_branch_heads --nohooks
cd src
git checkout branch-heads/50
gclient runhooks
ninja -C ./out/Release

Not sure what the error means, I have installed Xcode tools for mavericks as well. Any thoughts out there?

I had the same problem and I just found out a solution for this.
I found one related problem here:
http://techespanto.wordpress.com/2013/03/29/upgrade-ruby-version-on-mac-osx/
and it suggested I had to upgrade the ruby version on my machine. The first two commands in that link are not working, so I leave you here what I did:
Install the command line tools for mac with:
xcode-select --install
Install homebrew in your mac with:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
Install rvm with:
\curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --rails --autolibs=enable
List the latest ruby versions with:
rvm list known
Install the latest ruby version with:
rvm install ruby-<version>
(for me it was ruby-2.1-head)
And that's all. Hope it works for you as well!

You can also try the solution from https://stackoverflow.com/a/22787223/1165581
I looked at the calabash-ios google group for you and I think I have the solution for your
Try installing it like this
sudo ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install calabash-cucumber
If that fails you can try to downgrade xcode from 5.1 to one of the previous(Preferences->Locations).
