Error when running watchman
When I run react-native start, I am getting the following message
Error: A non-recoverable condition has triggered. Watchman needs your help! The triggering condition was at timestamp=1489123194: inotify-add-watch(/var/www/html/eventManager/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-mdpi) -> The user limit on the total number of inotify watches was reached; increase the fs.inotify.max_user_watches sysctl All requests will continue to fail with this message until you resolve the underlying problem. You will find more information on fixing this at https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/troubleshooting.html#poison-inotify-add-watch
