Error Trying to Run React Native project on Android physical device

Question

I am trying to start a React-Native project 3 days ago on my PC to run on my Android physical device. While running the project with npx react-native run-android appear the following logs:

I tried to change the environment variables and everything else, but the error persists. (I followed the tutorial of the documentation of React Native) Can you help me, please?

Edit

Check the path where your project is located and try to put in a folder that does not contain special characters, in your case it would be the folder "Programming". Rename this folder to "programming" without accents or create the project elsewhere (ex C: project programming).

Look, did you ever test all the tools needed for React Native to work? Ideally you would run the commands in the terminal:

node -v
javac -version
python --version

If all the above commands work correctly, showing each one’s version, make sure that Node is in LTS version, that Java is in version 8 (It might show something like 1.8.0) and that Python is in version 2. If all this is right, you need to check if your Android SDK installation is correct. A simple way to check this is by running the command:

adb devices

If nothing happens or an error message appears, that is to say you have some problem in installing the Android SDK, recommend you look at your environment variables and if installed everything needed by Android Studio.

If all the above steps are correct and the error still persists, try creating
