React Native with IntelliJ - Only cli starts and not run-android

I've created a new React Native app with react-native init ProjectName and tried to run it within IntelliJ. For this I've created a new run configuration:

But after run this configuration, only react-native start is executed and not the actual start of the app (react-native run-android). Within a shell it's working, but not with IntelliJ and therefore debugging within IntelliJ is not readily possible.

I'm using the latest React Native version 0.50.1 and IntelliJ 2017.2.5.

Do you know such a problem and do you know how to fix it? For existing applications, it still worked, but not for new ones. After npm install it seems to be buggy also with existing projects.

Known issue, tracked as WEB-29569: the packager messages format has changed in react-native 0.50.*, and WebStorm can't parse the output and start the run command.

As a workaround, you can try downgrading react-native to 0.49.
