Appium 2 and Appium server queries

Support
1

I have installed appium 2 beta version. But i have some queries, why still while running the application:“appium server gui” it says
Welcome to Appium v1.22.3
[Appium] Non-default server args:
[Appium] address: 127.0.0.1
[Appium] relaxedSecurityEnabled: true
[Appium] allowInsecure: {
[Appium] }

My automation and my terminal version shows
appium -v
2.0.0-beta.66.

Also, I’m unable to inspect iOS device from “appium server gui” as it says "
Failed to create session. An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Unable to launch WebDriverAgent because of xcodebuild failure: Trying to use WebDriverAgent project at ‘/Applications/Appium Server GUI.app/Contents/Resources/app/node_modules/appium/node_modules/appium-webdriveragent/WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj’ but the file does not exist"

There is no Appium 2 GUI version. If you are running GUI it is Appium 1.X. GUI does not pick up version installed, it uses version embedded in the app.

If you want to use Inspector with Appium 2, you can start Appium 2 with command: 'appium' in command line, and then attach with Inspector, but just change default path from ‘/wd/hub’ to ‘/’.
